Created an attachment (id=1338)
 --> (http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/attachment.cgi?id=1338)
patch for three way ControlPersist=yes/no/timeout option.

I re-wrote the ControlPersist patch to do what I want.  Differences
from other versions include:

1. The control master backgrounds itself immediately after
authentication, before running the shell or command for the first
client connection.  The first client connection is run as a client of
the newly-backgrounded control master.

2. The ControlPersist option takes a three-way yes/no/timeout
parameter, instead of using a separate ControlTimeeout parameter.

3. The ControlPersist timeout doesn't start ticking until the last
client connection is closed.

4. This patch does not add an IdleTimeout parameter or any kind of idle
timeout handling for normal connections.
