libbb: fix '--help' handling in FEATURE_SH_NOFORK=y
Most BusyBox applets respond to the '--help' option by printing a usage message. This is normally handled by busybox_main() so applet main routines don't have support for '--help'. In standalone shell mode with FEATURE_SH_NOFORK enabled nofork applets are invoked directly, bypassing busybox_main(). This results in inconsistent handling of '--help': - applets which call getopt() report "unrecognized option '--help'" and print help anyway; - realpath says "--help: No such file or directory" and doesn't print help; - usleep says "invalid number '--help'" and doesn't print help. Avoid inconsistency by checking for '--help' in run_nofork_applet().
