bottles: --force-bottle feigns or_later.
When reproducing issues with software that hasn’t been bottled yet on
your version of macOS it can sometimes be helpful to use `or_later`
bottle functionality i.e. just use the bottle for the latest version of
macOS available. This maps well to the existing `--force-bottle`
argument so it will now act as if the latest bottle has a `or_later`
ending.
