#' Use magrittr's pipe in your package
#'
#' Does setup necessary to use magrittr's pipe operator, `%>%` in your package.
#' This function requires the use roxygen.
#' * Adds magrittr to "Imports" in `DESCRIPTION`.
#' * Imports the pipe operator specifically, which is necessary for internal
#'   use.
#' * Exports the pipe operator, if `export = TRUE`, which is necessary to make
#'   `%>%` available to the users of your package.
#'
#' @param export If `TRUE`, the file `R/utils-pipe.R` is added, which provides
#' the roxygen template to import and re-export `%>%`. If `FALSE`, the necessary
#' roxygen directive is added, if possible, or otherwise instructions are given.
