Running CI on Mac OS X in Azure Pipelines is currently broken due to a moved homebrew package.
Change since v2:
* The commit message was improved (thanks Gábor).
Change since v1: -The step is now more robust (by pulling homebrew-cask and trying again if the pull failed).
Thanks, -Stolee

So let's try to call `brew cask install perforce` first (which is what
that error message suggests, in a most round-about way).
- The "caskroom" way was added in 672f51cb (travis-ci:
- fix Perforce install on macOS, 2017-01-22) and the justification
- is that the call "brew cask install perforce" can fail due to a checksum
- mismatch: the recipe simply downloads the official Perforce distro, and
- whenever that is updated, the recipe needs to be updated, too.
+ Prior to 672f51cb we used to install the 'perforce' package with 'brew
+ install perforce' (note: no 'cask' in there). The justification for
+ 672f51cb was that the command 'brew install perforce' simply stopped
+ working, after Homebrew folks decided that it's better to move the
+ 'perforce' package to a "cask". Their justification for this move was
+ that 'brew install perforce' "can fail due to a checksum mismatch ...",
+ and casks can be installed without checksum verification. And indeed,
+ both 'brew cask install perforce' and 'brew install
+ caskroom/cask/perforce' printed something along the lines of:
+
+ ==> No checksum defined for Cask perforce, skipping verification
+
+ It is unclear why 672f51cb used 'brew install caskroom/cask/perforce'
+ instead of 'brew cask install perforce'. It appears (by running both
+ commands on old Travis CI macOS images) that both commands worked all
+ the same already back then.
+
+ In any case, as the error message at the top of this commit message
+ shows, 'brew install caskroom/cask/perforce' has stopped working
+ recently, but 'brew cask install perforce' still does, so let's use
+ that.
CI servers are typically fresh virtual machines, but not always. To
accommodate for that, let's try harder if `brew cask install perforce`
