ABO Return Code

ABO ends a job with RC 8 (which means an ERROR ) if at least one module could not be optimized. Because it is more or less normal that ABO can not optimize each module it catches by the given directive a RC 4 (WARNING) should be sufficient.
Suggested solution is an ABO option which lets the user decide if such ABO runs should end with RC 4 or RC 8.
