added option AllowNoNamespaceComments for google-readability-namespace-comments

new option AllowOmittingNamespaceComments for
google-readability-namespace-comments is added.

When `true`, the check will accept if no namespace comment is present.
The check will only fail if the specified namespace comment is different
than expected. Default is `false`.
