Description
allmydata-tahoe restart doesn't work if the node isn't running.
This is a problem operationally, since I then need to know if a given node is running to determine which command to use.
restart should simply default to start if it can't find the twistd.pid

oops, the --force option *used* to be there, but it appears that some weirdness (maybe a silent merge problem?) caused it to disappear. (duplicate optFlags definitions in a single class).
I just fixed the problem and restored --force.
This still leaves open the question for zandr: is 'restart --force' good enough?

I'm going to close this to indicate that we consider it resolved as far as the v0.6.1 release. Zandr: please re-open this ticket if you prefer a different interface.

After a discussion with Zandr, I just made --force the default. This will go into 1.3.1.
This fix also helps #315.
Would you settle for "--force" option to restart?
