unixclient does not honor standard options

[Ben Franksen]

The help and man page say, and the UCSPI standard mandates, that the options -q. -Q, and -v should be supported. This is not the case: options are treated as normal arguments. This means that if you pass any options the program doesn't work as it should.

A patch that fixes this bug is attached. It also fixes the help output which wrongly lists the -c option (which is also not honored and doesn't make sense for a client anyway).

Here is an amended patch that suppresses error messages when the -q option is in effect, as mandated by the UCSPI standard.

Yet another update of my patch. It now also removes description of the defunct -c option from the man page for unixclient.
