Undo cipher push in client options state if cipher is rejected

Because of the way we re-use the options parser for both config files and
pushed options, we always update the local options state when we accept an
option. This resulted in a pushed cipher being rejected the first time it
was pushed, but being accepted the second time.

This patch is a minimal way to resolve this issue in the master and
release/2.4 branches. I'll send a more invasive patch for master, to
reset the entire options state on reconnects, later.

Trac: #906
