"--no-sandbox" incorrectly parsed as a file?

Describe the bug I'm trying to run drawio on CI, in a docker container. I have to add --no-sandbox to get it to almost start. However, it then dies with "Error: input file/directory not found". I suspect it's trying to treat --no-sandbox as another file to process, but am not 100% sure.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Install some way that gives you a drawio command
2. Run drawio --export --format pdf --embed-diagram --output architecture.drawio.pdf architecture.drawio as a normal user, not in docker: it should work if you have an "architecture.drawio" file.
3. Now run drawio --no-sandbox --export --format pdf --embed-diagram --output architecture.drawio.pdf architecture.drawio
4. See error

Expected behavior It should run, but without using the sandboxing features from electron

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.

draw.io version (In the Help->About menu of the draw.io editor):

• draw.io version 19.0.3

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Linux: Debian Bullseye AMD64

Additional context If there's an alternate preferred way to script this, I'd be happy to hear it, especially since using the desktop deb requires an Xvfb fake X server, asound, etc: lots of things that the actual command-line usage shouldn't probably use, but which are getting pulled in by being part of a larger app.

Hi,

Same behaviour using a Debian 11.3 container and Draw.io 19.0.3. Here are the logs:

$ drawio --border=0 --export --no-sandbox --output diagrams/schema.png --page-index=3 \
        diagrams/schema.drawio

A solution for this is to have --no-sandbox as the last argument:

https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/issues/249#issuecomment-634157627 (a previous issue which was closed, probably because it got slightly derailed)

As for the "preferred" way to script this, as far as I know the recommendation is either to use Xvfb or to use the web server to export it (as recommended https://github.com/jgraph/drawio-desktop/issues/127#issuecomment-520125076)

Still there in the latest release.
