Bug 12031 -  Task Scheduler not sending mail

At some stage the runreport.pl cronjob was changed to accept longopts, but the
scheduler script wasn't changed along with it. This patch fixes the mismatch.

To test:

1. make sure that your user is not in at.deny, and (if applicable/necessary) is
in at.allow

1.5 test this on a package install, sending mails will still not work for git
installs, even with this patch.

Useful, but not required step: make sure email can be sent from your server,
also helpful is access to the Koha user's mail box (to see the bounce messages)

2. create a saved sql report to run

3. Go to Tools -> Task Scheduler and schedule a job to be run, and results
emailed to you

4. note that you do not (without the patch) get an email. Make a note of the
command it reports it is going to run.

5. apply the patch

6. schedule another job, you will notice that the command to run the scheduled
job is slightly changed compared to the one in step 4.

7. Receiving an email when your job runs means the patch worked. Seeing
--format= and --to= in the command also means the patch worked, as this is the
command that runreport.pl is expecting.
