AUTO_PIN should not change to different package manager #695

What would you like?

Corepack AUTO_PIN should not attempt to automatically change to a different package manager in a project, such as attempting to change an npm project into a Yarn project.

Why is this needed?

By default, and if the environment variable COREPACK_ENABLE_AUTO_PIN is not set to 0 If COREPACK_ENABLE_AUTO_PIN is set to 1, then Corepack adds a packageManager field to an existing package.json file if the field is not present.

If a project is identifiable through a lock file

then AUTO_PIN should not attempt to add a packageManager field for a different package manager.
