Closes humbug#847. Afer reviewing the linked issue, I think a better way to handle errors is to leave alone non valid PHP files (i.e. files that PHP-Parser could not parse) but otherwise fail. This can cause problems however, I suspect mostly during tests, where one may want to try the final scopped result depsite a failure. For this reason, a new option `--continue-on-failure` has been added to the `add-prefix` command. The option `--stop-on-failure` has now been deprecated and will be removed a future version.

This code was introduced in humbug#869 and the intent was to make PHP-Scoper fail when encountering any PHP-Parser parsing exception by default. Unfortunately the code introduced did not correctly translate this intent, this PR fixes that.

Closes #847.
As reported in #847, the current strategy is not ideal: if a failure occurs, the file is preserved. You can only see that there was a failure by paying attention to the output or having a more verbose output, unless you pass the
--stop-on-failureoption.I think historically it has been that way because in the early days of PHP-Scoper, a failure was non infrequent and it was very frustrating to not be able to examine the result despite the failure.
The tool is now more robust and the only exception that I can see regularly coming still is invalid PHP code (e.g. when it is a template). As such, this PR proposes to:
--stop-on-failurewas always provided).--continue-on-failure.The option
--stop-on-failurehas now been deprecated and will be removed a future version as it is now useless.
