#63589: base: port select blindly overwrites pre-existing binaries, without warning

Per issue:57787, as well as subsequent [https://github.com/macports
/macports-ports/pull/12501 PR 12501 - go-tools: eliminate conflict with
Ruby], it appears that `port select` blindly overwrites existing binaries,
even if they belong to another port.
Given that the rest of MacPorts makes every attempt to avoid such issues,
this should be fixed.
