--editorconfig does not work with --stdin

[lwuk]

Expected Behavior

The .editorconfig file passed to --editorconfig should have its configuration used by ktlint.

Observed Behavior

--editorconfig argument's configuration is not used when --stdin option is used.

Steps to Reproduce

Make a kotlin file at ~/src/SomeKotlinFile.kt and an editor config at ~/config/.editorconfig.

cat <path-to-home>/src/SomeKotlinFile.kt | ktlint --stdin --editorconfig=<path-to-home>/config/.editorconfig won't use the config's options, while ktlint <path-to-home> --editorconfig=<path-to-home>/config/.editorconfig will.

It will use an .editorconfig in the current directory instead, so the config will be taken into account if ~/config/ is the working directory.

Your Environment

• Version of ktlint used: 0.38.1
• Name and version (or code for custom task) of integration used (Gradle plugin, Maven plugin, command line, custom Gradle task): command line

Yes, usage of --stdin overrides --editorconfig option. Workaround would be:

cd ~/config/ && cat ~/src/SomeKotlinFile.kt | ktlint --stdin
