Description
It would be useful to redefine a module using define or provide a function to unload a module. Right now calling define with the same module name (with ignore duplicates) ignores the contents if it has changed.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the loader's handling of define when the same module name is used with ignore duplicates. The issue does not name files or tests and leaves redefinition versus unloading unresolved, so the expected behavior must be clarified before implementation; done should be a decided, tested behavior.
