In v8 mode, dh expects the sequence to run is always its first parameter.
This avoids ambiguities when parsing options to be passed on to debhelper
commands. (See #570039)
In the end, the idea of putting the debhelper command options after --
seemed to need too much knowledge about whether an option like
--buildsystem is a dh option or a command option.
I did consider making no change.. The ambiguities this eliminates are
small. But it seemed worth simplifying dh's option parser, and only about
1/6th of calls to dh in the archive don't put the sequence first already.
(Docs have shown that as the right thing to do for some time.)
