      office: try all members, even when one fails · 1d7e374e

      the end result will be the same -- an abort -- but the user will get
to see all the warnings for a particular file, instead of getting them
one at a time.

      document all unknown/unhandlable files even on abort · 915dc634

      This makes it easy to get a list of all files that mat2 doesn't know
how to handle, without having to choose -u keep or -u omit.

      add --unknown-members argument to mat2 · 10d60bd3
      dkg authored 
      This allows the user to make use of parser.unknown_member_policy for
archive formats.

At the suggestion of @jvoisin, it also prints a scary warning if the
user explicitly chooses 'keep'.

      office: create policy for what to do about unknown members · 4192a2da
      dkg authored 
      previously, encountering an unknown member meant that any parser of
this type would abort.

now, the user can set parser.unknown_member_policy to either 'omit' or
'keep' if they don't want the current action of 'abort'

note that this causes pylint to complain about branching depth for
remove_all() because of the nuanced error-handling.  I've disabled
this check.
