[PATCH] fwts_framework: handle -? option differently from -h

From: Colin Ian King <colin.king at canonical.com>
When optargs fail, the optarg short option '?' is returned
which currently acts the same as -h. The result is that
the user can use an incorrect option and they get more than
a console's worth of help information and the error message
scrolls off the screen, which isn't too helpful. Instead,
make the -? option just inform the user that there is a -h
option for more help, thus the error message from the failed
optarg scanning is not scrolled off the screen.
