agetty: make --remote to forward --nohostname as -H to login
Without this change an attempt to remove hostname printing required following rather clumsy agetty invocation. /sbin/agetty --nohostname --login-options '/bin/login -H -- \u' After the change --nohostname behaves similar way with --host option, that is when combined with --remote the effect is passed to login(1).
