Do not allow pkgnames to start with a hyphen
Commandline arguments starting with a hyphen are usually recognized as
options by unix tools. Therefore, allowing hyphens at the beginning of a
package name requires a different handling of pkgnames as suggested by
rm's manpage.
It would be possible to make the scripts 'hyphen-safe', but
hyphen-prefixed packages will cause trouble for pacman users which do
not know these tricks.
