Hello.

Have you ever attempted to codeql database create foo but maybe you forgot or missed a flag? So you modify the command and try to run it again, but, this time, it spits out a lovely:

$ codeql database create nuxtdb -l javascript -s nuxt.js
Initializing database at /Users/mario-campos/nuxtdb.
A fatal error occurred: Refusing to create database: '/Users/mario-campos/nuxtdb' exists and is not an empty directory.

It would be really nice and convenient to add a -f, --force flag to be able to override the warning:

$ codeql database create nuxtdb -f -l javascript -s nuxt.js
Initializing database at /Users/mario-campos/nuxtdb.
WARNING: '/Users/mario-campos/nuxtdb' exists and is not an empty directory; overwriting directory...

Thanks
