RFA: Don't skip 'Y' prefix in switches

- Subject: RFA: Don't skip 'Y' prefix in switches
This is an undocumented feature of switch processing that doesn't have
an explanation and appears pointless. We treat most (not all) options
-Ywhatever as -whatever.
OK to remove it on a successful bootstrap/check?
Neil.
* toplev.c (independent_decode_option): Don't skip a 'Y' prefix.
