Fixes the crash reported in Bugzilla #1131 where a malformed parameter that specifies the table option during a restore can create an invalid pointer. It was discovered during fuzz testing that options like '-ftf' can cause a segfault. A parameter that includes a 't' is not currently filtered correctly. Improves the filtering to: Filter a beginning '-' followed by a character other than '-' and then a 't' anywhere in the parameter. This filters parameters like '-ftf'. Filter '--t'. Filter '--table', stopping when the parameter length is reached. Because the getopt_long function allows abbreviations, any unique abbreviation of '--table' will be treated as '--table'. This filters parameters like '--t', '--ta', but not '--ttl' or '--target'.
