Subject: (tail_forever): When following by name and calling recheck
X-Git-Tag: TEXTUTILS-1_22q~12

(tail_forever): When following by name and calling recheck
because of exceeding max_n_consecutive_size_changes_between_opens,
`continue' so we don't fall through and (assuming the file finally grew)
get the erroneous `file truncated' message.
