Description

Reproduce:

1. bin/solr create mycoll
2. Open http://localhost:8983/solr/#/mycoll/schema
3. Click button Add field
4. Enter field name mystring_s and select type string
5. Submit -> Error message Field 'myfield_s' already exists.

Resolution

In ManagedIndexSchema#addFields, line #398, the test getFieldOrNull() will return both fields and dynamic fields. We need to check for ordinary fields only.
