Subject: [PATCH 3/7] checkpatch: Add a few convenience options to disable/modify features

These are options that are useful when running from make, to allow
flags already supplied by make to be overridden (later on the command line)

Add these two options to cancel the effects of --quiet and --ignore-cfg:
--no-quiet
--no-ignore-cfg

Also added:
--req-ignore-cfg:  With --ignore-cfg - treat a nonexistent file as if it
    were an empty file, effectively enforcing a full checkpatch --strict run.
    The default behaviour with --ignore-cfg is not to perform any
    checkpatch checking if an ignore configuration file is not found.
    This was done to enable automated checkpatch runs for directories
    that are "clean" according to the configuration.
