Bugfix: Prevent `forget --keep-tags invalid` from deleting all snapshots
Running `forget --keep-tags invalid`, where the tag `invalid` does not
exist in the repository, would remove all snapshots. This is especially
problematic if the tag name contains a typo.
The `forget` command now fails with an error if all snapshots in a snapshot
group would be deleted. This prevents the above example from deleting all
snapshots.

Enhancement: Remove all snapshots using `forget --unsafe-allow-remove-all`
The forget command now supports the `--unsafe-allow-remove-all` option. It must
always be combined with a snapshot filter (by host, path or tag).
For example the command `forget --tag example --unsafe-allow-remove-all`,
removes all snapshots with tag `example`.
