'blockdev-change-medium' is a convinient wrapper for the following
sequence of commands:
  * blockdev-open-tray
  * blockdev-remove-medium
  * blockdev-insert-medium
  * blockdev-close-tray
and should be used f.e. to change ISO image inside the CD-ROM tray.
Though the guest could lock the tray and some linux guests like
CentOS 8.5 actually does that. In this case the execution if this
command results in the error like the following:
   Device 'scsi0-0-1-0' is locked and force was not specified,
   wait for tray to open and try again.

This situation is could be resolved 'blockdev-open-tray' by passing
flag 'force' inside. Thus is seems reasonable to add the same
capability for 'blockdev-change-medium' too.

It's guaranteed for force to be false when has_force is false (ans similarly 
for pointers), so that can be written as

  rc = do_open_tray(device, id, force, &err);

      if (rc && rc != -ENOSYS) {

Should we also update hmp-commands.hx ? Or you just can pass "false, false" if 
you don't really need hmp interface for new feature.

Also, I don't know what ui/cocoa.m is, but seems it has call to 
qmp_blockdev_change_medium(), which most probably should be updated too.
