Allow debugger aliases that start with '-' and '.'
Since the '.' and '-' commands don't take any arguments and don't run if any are provided, don't treat commands starting with these characters as the single commands '.' and '-'. Restores behavior that existed prior to https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/7fdd4f080863703d44282c6988834455d129040 (v5.27) at least back to v5.8.8 https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/7fdd4f080863703d44282c6988834455d129040
