Move many command-specific options to only be accepted by the command that uses them.
Affected options are: -x, -r, -R, -l, -L, -m, --include-conffiles,
--no-restart-on-upgrade, --no-start, --restart-after-upgrade,
--init-script, --filename, --flavor, --autodest, --libpackage, --add-udeb,
--dpkg-shlibdeps-params, --dpkg-gencontrol-params, --update-rcd-params,
--major, --remove-d, --dirs-only, --keep-debug, --version-info,
--list-missing, --fail-missing, --language, --until, --after, --before,
--remaining, --with
* If any third-party debhelper commands use any of the above options,
they will be broken, and need to be changed to pass options to init().
* To avoid breaking rules files that pass options to commands that do not
use them, debhelper will now only warn if it encounters an unknown
option. This will be converted back to an error later.
