The original patch used -o in pg_verify_checksums, the discussion of which
started in the below mail:

https://postgr.es/m/20180228194242.qbjasdtwm2yj5rqg%40alvherre.pgsql

Since -f was already used for “force check”, -r ended up being used. Now that
there no longer is a -f flag in pg_checksums, it can be renamed.
