If options_act() fails, restore the previous value of global_options
Before 0.3.3.1-alpha, we would exit() in this case immediately. But now that we leave tor_main() more conventionally, we need to make sure we restore things so as not to cause a double free. Fixes bug 27708; bugfix on 0.3.3.1-alpha.
