[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] Try to continue despite missing %include files on forced spec parse (#684)

[pavlinamv]

Please, where is described, that forced spec parse already allow sources 
and patches to be missing?

Why to continue despite missing %include files and not despite missing %load files?
(even if "more often than not, the %include'd file is actually a source of that package".)

> It's just about trying to continue despite missing ones (and in this case the result will be unreliable, but with a warning)

Otherwise I think the changed behaviour in case "rpmspec -q" is good. It 
enables to get the data that are requested, but it still wrote the warning that 
informs is sources are missing. Moreover the output is usually so small so 
the warning can not be missed easily.

But  in cases where the output is larger e.g. "rpmspec -P" this change does 
not look unambiguously positive to me. It is because the output is "unreliable" 
and the warning can be missed.
