Detect Acrobat Reader DC when Acrobat DC is installed

Acrobat DC includes Reader DC. We would appreciate having the Reader DC install detect itself as already installed if Acrobat DC is also installed.

      Unfortunately changing this behaviour would have negative impact for customers that prefer their app installation statuses to be tracked separately. A better approach may be to add a requirements script so that Reader will not try to install if set as a required deployment and full Acrobat is already present.

      Patches for each variant of Acrobat should only be deployed to the relevant versions already.
