Bugfix: Restic forget --keep-* options now interpret "-1" as "forever"
Bugfix: Support "unlimited" in `forget --keep-*` options
Restic would forget snapshots that should have been kept when "-1" was
used as a value for --keep-* options. It now interprets "-1" as forever,
e.g. an option like --keep-monthly -1 will keep all monthly snapshots.
Restic would forget snapshots that should have been kept when a negative value
was passed to the `--keep-*` options. Negative values are now forbidden. To
keep all snapshots, the special value `unlimited` is now supported. For
example, `--keep-monthly unlimited` will keep all monthly snapshots.
