The category of R-modules has all colimits. #
From the existence of colimits in AddCommGrpCat, we deduce the existence of colimits
in ModuleCat R. This way, we get for free that the functor
forget₂ (ModuleCat R) AddCommGrpCat commutes with colimits.
Note that finite colimits can already be obtained from the instance Abelian (Module R).
TODO:
In fact, in ModuleCat R there is a much nicer model of colimits as quotients
of finitely supported functions, and we really should implement this as well.
