Pidgin cannot be given options (like -d)

Originally created by @emmapeel on #10383 (Redmine)

reported by user (coding plugin for pidgin), confirmed by me.

Because of our wrapper for pidgin, command line options like -d cannot be used.

This could be fixed with provided patch, but I cannot really decide if allowing options for pidgin could have unwanted consequences. I have tested that changing /usr/local/bin/pidgin works, though, and I can run pidgin with options. I have not made a new image.

Please review the security implications.
