Legacy author fields are challenged

Code
  challenge_legacy_author_fields()
Message
  x Found legacy 'Author' and/or 'Maintainer' field in DESCRIPTION.
    usethis only supports modification of the 'Authors@R' field.
  i We recommend one of these paths forward:
  [ ] Delete the legacy fields and rebuild with `use_author()`; or
  [ ] Convert to 'Authors@R' with `desc::desc_coerce_authors_at_r()`, then delete
    the legacy fields.
Condition
  Error in `ui_yep()`:
  x User input required, but session is not interactive.
  i Query: "Do you want to cancel this operation and sort that out first?"

Decline to tweak an existing author

Code
  use_author("Jennifer", "Bryan", role = "cph")
Condition
  Error in `check_author_is_novel()`:
  x "Jennifer Bryan" already appears in 'Authors@R'.
    Please make the desired change directly in DESCRIPTION or call the desc package directly.

Placeholder author is challenged

Code
  use_author("Charlie", "Brown")
Message
  v Adding to 'Authors@R' in DESCRIPTION:
    Charlie Brown [ctb]
  i 'Authors@R' appears to include a placeholder author:
    First Last <[e-mail]> [aut, cre]
