TS-3245 : Changes optind = 1 to optind = 0 for all plugins to ensure
that multiples plugins in the global plugin.config can co-exist
together. Note that all plugins were already optind = 0 except
for the four that were modified in the this commit
(background_fetch,
regex_revalidate, remap_stats, and stale_while_revalidate).
Note: This patch does NOT change ATS core so that future plugins
must be sure to use optind = 0 also.
Understood preference is for ATS core change to cover all plugins, but this
has been outstanding for more than one year and affects our usage of ATS. Also,
I am not sure if an ATS core change can cover the plugins since according to
the Linux man page setting optind=0 and calling getopt_long() causes an
"internal" initialization process to run which looks at the optstring argument
to getopt_long(). ATS core would not have pre-knowledge of each plugin's
internals so this seems like this would be a road-block?
