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.
