Yusuke Endoh 983115cf3c [ruby/fileutils] FileUtils.rm* methods swallows only Errno::ENOENT when force is true
... instead of any StandardError.

To behave like the standard `rm` command, it should only ignore
exceptions about not existing files, not every exception. This should
make debugging some errors easier, because the expectation is that `rm
-rf` will succeed if and only if, all given files (previously existent
or not) are removed. However, due to this exception swallowing, this is
not always the case.

From the `rm` man page

> COMPATIBILITY
>
> The rm utility differs from historical implementations in that the -f
> option only masks attempts to remove non-existent files instead of
> masking a large variety of errors.
