'credential reset -append' not idempotent

[gabbsmo]

Describe the bug

When running the command again for the same certificate it will import a duplicate.

Related command

az ad app credential reset --id $appId --cert "@$cerPath" --append

Errors

None

Issue script & Debug output

N/A

Expected behavior

I propose that if a certificate with the same thumbprint already exists in the app, a duplicate should not be created - regardless of the --append switch.
