      Problem

      Typically mongodump and mongorestore fail if they encounter a collection they cannot export or restore (for example, TOOLS-3329). This sometimes necessitates complex workarounds. We can instead provide clients a flag like skipAuthErrors to continue the dump/restore, and just print a summary of collections that had problems

      Solution & Acceptance Criteria

      • Add a new flag to allows for this behavior
      • Add the flag to the public documentation
