unstrip: Add --force to force combining files when ELF headers don't match.
Older versions of GNU binutils strip would drop some ELF header flags.
Causing the main ELF file and the separate .debug file to have mismatched
ELF header fields. Unfortunately some distros are still shipping such files.
eu-unstrip doesn't want to recombine such files. Add a more explicit
explanation which fields don't match and provide a --force, -F flag to
force combining such files anyway (producing a warning).
