* Adds the `--parents` optiont to the first command so that it is runnable
* Updates the description to specifies the option to use if you _do_ want nonexistant intermediate directories created
Instead of manually creating multiaddr strings, use the multiaddr logic to
format them. We were still using `/ipfs` multiaddrs instead of `/p2p` multiaddrs.
We've deprecated this system and have yet to move to a new system. We might as
well remove everything, switch to a new system, then deliberately trace the
entire system.
Unfortunately, we don't currently have any way to pick out good relays from bad.
That means we keep searching, trying bad relays, searching some more, trying
_the same relays_, etc. until we randomly find 3 good stable relays. In
practice, this means we just keep searching forever and keep thrashing the DHT.

This will be useful when testing `refs local, `repo gc`, and `repo verify`
commands once we store blocks by multihash instead of by CID. At that point,
these commands will return raw v1 CIDs as the blockstore won't actually remember
the codec used to store the block.
Flags choice:
* Ideally, we'd use the `-f, --format` flags like every other command but we're
already using `-f` (format) for the format string.
* Alternatively, I'd like to use `-c`. However, we're using _that_ for a global
`--config` flag (bit of a waste given that it doesn't work...).
`--codec` will have to do for now.
1. Require files to have known sizes. We can add support for unknown sizes
_later_ but we can't use ServeContent for those files.
2. Replace the `sizeReadSeeker` with a `lazySeeker`. This one makes no
assumptions about how it's used so we're less likely to run into weird bugs.
- Make `ipfs files rm --force /nonexistant` succeed when the path does not exist.
- Add shaness test for removing nonexistant paths
- Refactor duplicated code to find a parent dir into a function
I've been writing scripts against the files api, and having to stat things before removing them is a pain. So this PR aims to make --force do what I'd expect it to.
