Remove optreset from src/port/ implementations of getopt and getopt_long.
We don't actually need optreset, because we can easily fix the code to ensure that it's cleanly restartable after having completed a scan over the argv array; which is the only case we need to restart in. Getting rid of it avoids a class of interactions with the system libraries and allows reversion of my change of yesterday in postmaster.c and postgres.c. Back-patch to 8.4. Before that the getopt code was a bit different anyway.
