xl: treat sub-command main function like a regular C main() function
Currently xl passes the entire argc+argv to each subcommand and relies
on the preservation of the global optind variable to ensure that the
subcommand correctly handles argument parsing (e.g. accounting for "xl
[command]" vs "xl -v [command]").
This requirement for individual sub-commands to parse arguments
relative to optind is subtle and prone to being forgotten (or simply
not expected). Several sub-commands have recently been broken in this
way (now fixed).
Therefore arrange that the argv+argc passed to the sub-commands looks
like you would expect for a regular C main function and includes
argv[0] equal to the command name with command specific arguments in
argv[1] onwards.
Since all sub-commands (currently) correctly obey the optind it is
sufficient to reset it to 1 (as described in getopt(3)) in order to
not break the sub-commands' own argument parsing.
