[PATCH 07/10] commands: help: ignore options after first regular argument

[Ahmad Fatoum <a.fatoum@pengutronix.de>]

If some-command -n foo bar -v fails, it would be nice to be able to
just stick help in front of the command to get help text. This doesn't
work currently, because getopt called for help will complain about not
knowing some-command's options. Fix this by only parsing help options up
to the first non-option argument (i.e. one that doesn't start with `-').
