It's the set _comp_options you'll find in the compinit function.
Note this doesn't reset the options, it sets only the values given, so
some options set by the user are passed through.  There may be more that
shouldn't be (typically those affecting syntax); if you need some
special behaviour for one function you can "setopt localoptions
<that-option>".
