I haven't been using pkgin enough to know, but: can we make pkg_radd a
frontend for pkgin that performs the same way as pkg_radd does now?  i.e.
it grabs the appropriate named package, and that's it.

Having two different tools can make life a bit harder, and I like how
straightforward pkg_radd can be.  But, I like having more (any?) options
for package manipulation consistently available.
