cli: remove hard requirement on list-jobs (#16380)
Most job subcommands allow for job ID prefix match as a convenience
functionality so users don't have to type the full job ID.

But this introduces a hard ACL requirement that the token used to run
these commands have the `list-jobs` permission, even if the token has
enough permission to execute the basic command action and the user
passed an exact job ID.

This change softens this requirement by not failing the prefix match in
case the request results in a permission denied error and instead using
the information passed by the user directly.

# Command: job periodic force
The `job periodic force` command is used to [force the evaluation] of a
[periodic job].
## Usage
```plaintext
nomad job periodic force [options] <job id>
```
The `job periodic force` command requires a single argument, specifying the ID
of the job. This job must be a periodic job. This is used to immediately run a
periodic job, even if it violates the job's `prohibit_overlap` setting.
By default, on successful job submission the command will enter an interactive
monitor and display log information detailing the scheduling decisions and
placement information for the forced evaluation. The monitor will exit after
scheduling has finished or failed.
When ACLs are enabled, this command requires a token with the `submit-job`
capability for the job's namespace. The `list-jobs` capability is required to
run the command with a job prefix instead of the exact job ID. The `read-job`
capability is required to monitor the resulting evaluation when `-detach` is
not used.
## General Options
@include 'general_options.mdx'
## Run Options
- `-detach`: Return immediately instead of monitoring. A new evaluation ID
will be output, which can be used to examine the evaluation using the
[eval status] command.
- `-verbose`: Show full information.
## Examples
Force the evaluation of the job `example`, monitoring placement:
```shell-session
$ nomad job periodic force example
==> Monitoring evaluation "54b2d6d9"
Evaluation triggered by job "example/periodic-1555094493"
Allocation "637aee17" created: node "a35ab8fc", group "cache"
Allocation "637aee17" status changed: "pending" -> "running" (Tasks are running)
Evaluation status changed: "pending" -> "complete"
==> Evaluation "54b2d6d9" finished with status "complete"
```
Force the evaluation of the job `example` and return immediately:
```shell-session
$ nomad job periodic force -detach example
Force periodic successful
Evaluation ID: 0865fbf3-30de-5f53-0811-821e73e63178
