check_icmp: fix parsing help/version long options

Fix parsing of the long options --help and --version. The special
handling must be done before calling getopt().
This fixes erroneous output like:

    ./check_icmp --version
    ./check_icmp: invalid option -- '-'
    ./check_icmp: invalid option -- 'e'
    ./check_icmp: invalid option -- 'r'
    ./check_icmp: invalid option -- '-'
    ./check_icmp: invalid option -- 'e'
    ./check_icmp: invalid option -- 'r'
