resources: add interfaces that return conflict information
request_resource() and insert_resource() only return success or failure,
which no information about what existing resource conflicted with the
proposed new reservation. This patch adds request_resource_conflict()
and insert_resource_conflict(), which return the conflicting resource.
Callers may use this for better error messages or to adjust the new
resource and retry the request.
