Solved 'Illegal option' error when passphrase starts with hyphen.

e.g. the error occurs with the input -X.pass

export passphrase="-X.pass"
printf "$passphrase"
# Output:
# script.sh: line 2: printf: -X: invalid option
# printf: usage: printf [-v var] format [arguments]

With the double hyphen the printf works as expected

export passphrase="-X.pass"
printf -- "$passphrase"
# Output: -X.pass
