fetch-all-upstreams: add '-k' (--keep-going) option #73

Description

@salewski

This issue pertains to ads-github-fetch-all-upstreams, as shipped with ads-github-tools-0.3.3 (and all previous versions).

This issue is similar in spirit to issue #32, but approaches the problem with a less sophisticated (but perhaps easier to use) mechanism.

When you have a significant number (or pehaps just an unknown number) of problematic repos (e.g., forked repos where the original upstream repo is no longer accessible on GitHub), you sometimes want to tell the ads-github-fetch-all-upstreams to "just deal with the repos that can be dealt with; complain about problematic repos (on stderr), but otherwise keep going".

We should add a command line option to ads-github-fetch-all-upstreams to allow the the user to request the above behavior. For consistence with the ads-github-merge-all-upstreams program, we should name the option -k (--keep-going).
