Description
Currently, nomp_init() has the following signature:
int nomp_init(int argc, const char **argv);
This should be change similar to MPI_Init() as follows:
int nomp_init(int *argc, const char ***argv);
This way we can filter out and process --nomp-<arg> arguments and
their values and return the modified argc and argv variables without
--nomp-<arg> back to the user.

Research direction
Start by locating the nomp_init() declaration, implementation, and its callers, then compare the requested behavior with MPI_Init(). Update the API so --nomp- options and their values are removed from the returned argc and argv; done means callers receive the modified arguments through the new pointer parameters.
