Bug #5840: Util/command_line treats options as applications
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5840

Author: Luke Kanies

Given this command line with a custom application:
<pre>
$ puppet --trace data certificate find foo
</pre>
You get an exception from the 'apply' application, rather than the 'data' 
application:
<pre>
luke@syringe $ puppet --trace data certificate find syringe
/Users/luke/puppet/lib/puppet/application/apply.rb:82:in `main'
/Users/luke/puppet/lib/puppet/application/apply.rb:35:in `run_command'
/Users/luke/puppet/lib/puppet/application.rb:287:in `run'
/Users/luke/puppet/lib/puppet/application.rb:393:in `exit_on_fail'
/Users/luke/puppet/lib/puppet/application.rb:287:in `run'
/Users/luke/puppet/lib/puppet/util/command_line.rb:59:in `execute'
/Users/luke/puppet/bin/puppet:4
Could not run: Could not find file data
luke@syringe $
</pre>
If you move the '--trace' to after 'data', then it works fine.

This should either work (which seems the best choice) or fail with a useful 
error message, rather than loading the wrong application entirely.
