I think this is nearly ready. We just need to decide on the final keyword name (e.g., notnull_equals or no_conflicts) and add mention of this in the documentation / what's new.

I'm not sure we really need this new method for Dataset/DataArray (for the current implementation, adding it on Variable would be enough). Given that the user can catch MergeError, it seems straightforward enough just call merge to see if merging is safe.
