Describe the bug
When a manager edits a submitted or published preprint's metadata to add a co-author then clicks "Save Author" or "Save Metadata", the system will return an error and not add the co-author if the co-author's email address is already registered in the system.
The new author's data is in the preprint metadata.
There would be an option for the author / manager to search for existing authors by name or email address (similar to what is on the author's submission form): "Add an author already in the system"
Additional context
This does not occur when a submitter adds authors on the initial submission form

seems like to fix this, we would need to have the "Add an author already in the system" from the author's submission form and change "➕More Author Forms" to "➕Add an author NOT already in the system"
or, if there is an email match, then 1) ignore all the other fields and 2) use the info already associated with the author, and change the message to "Author with this Email address already exists -- using data from the author's record"?
NOTE: This looks like the place where author re-ordering could happen?
