reproducing Lua script

Build Information:
v2.1.0rc0-2652-g4a37458
--
Preferences set via the "-o" option are lost once Lua dissectors are reloaded.

Reproducer:

1. Run:

    rm -rf /tmp/wshome2 && HOME=/tmp/wshome2 \
    wireshark -r test/captures/dns_port.pcap \
        -Xlua_script:preftest.lua -o preftest.key:x
2. Reload Lua plugins (Ctrl-Shift-L)

Expected results:
Preference is still applied (but possibly unsaved to preferences file).

Actual results:
Preference value from "-o" is not applied. The saved preference is used instead
(empty for the above test case).
