When both AbstractDifferentiation and ForwardDiff get imported. There is a warning!

https://github.com/JuliaDiff/AbstractDifferentiation.jl/blob/c04c0338bd5cf31159febbaab9faba65566c6faa/src/forwarddiff.jl this is dangerous. We should require the libraries that are used.

@devmotion can you make sure this is handled in #68 ?

[devmotion]

#68 should be fine, StaticArrays is not loaded in the ForwardDiff backend in that PR. I had already removed it since it seemed to be unnecessary. I opened #75 as a fix.
