scope CLI option doesn't work as expected

"scope", "Emit skipped"

Expected Behavior

Was reading through #693 and saw that a --scope flag fix in #1346 was merged. However, it doesn't appear to work on ts-node@10.2.1. I wrote a small script that imports from a module in the same yarn workspace. It runs successfully if I set TS_NODE_SCOPE=true, but crashes with an "Emit skipped" error when I use the --scope flag.

Actual Behavior

The script exits successfully when I use TS_NODE_SCOPE=true while it crashes with an "Emit skipped" error when I use the --scope flag

Steps to reproduce the problem

See run.sh here: TypeStrong/ts-node-repros#19

TS_NODE_SCOPE=true yarn ts-node b/index.ts --project b/tsconfig.json works.

yarn ts-node b/index.ts --project b/tsconfig.json --scope fails.

Looks like an issue with passing command-line arguments in the wrong order. https://typestrong.org/ts-node/docs/configuration#cli-flags
