Manual interactive search #52

It would be nice to beable to manually search for a TV series name when tvnamer fails to find the correct show. The current workaround involves renaming all the files manually to the correct name when a show is miss labelled (or labelled in shorthand) which mostly defeated the purpose of this program. Adding a manual search option would help make it easier to correct badly named files.

You can override the detected series name by doing:

tvnamer --name 'Corrected Series (2011)' nonsense.s01e01.avi

Or, if you know the tvdb series ID:

tvnamer --series-id 12345 nonsense.s01e01.avi

Closing, forcing the name with --name seems like it'll work for this
