scalar: accept -C and -c options before the subcommand
The `git` executable has these two very useful options: -C <directory>: switch to the specified directory before performing any actions -c <key>=<value>: temporarily configure this setting for the duration of the specified scalar subcommand With this commit, we teach the `scalar` executable the same trick. Note: It might look like a good idea to try to reuse the `handle_options()` function in `git.c` instead of replicating only the `-c`/`-C` part. However, that function is not only not in `libgit.a`, it is also intricately entangled with the rest of the code in `git.c` that is necessary e.g. to handle `--paginate`. Besides, no other option handled by that `handle_options()` function is relevant to Scalar, therefore the cost of refactoring vastly would outweigh the benefit.
