clang-rename: add new -force option
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary
The use-case is when renaming a widely used name, like a lower-level
class in a codebase and clang-rename is simply invoked for each
translation unit based on the compile database. In this case it's not
interesting to show errors: not finding the symbol means there is
simply nothing to do.

Forgot to include one hunk to fix the build of the check-clang-tools target; I'll fix in a moment.

Why do we want to set ErrorOccurred in this case?

Later in RenamingAction.cpp:48 we assume that the PrevNames vector is parallel to the NewNames one, but in the above case we return early, so that's not the case. An easy way to avoid violating that assumption was to keep setting the error, so we don't reach the problematic part of RenamingAction. (If we reach it, we'll crash.)

A perhaps more elegant way is to not set the flag, but instead check if the two vectors are parallel after checking for errors, I'll do that in a moment.
