Implement stdio passthrough port forward mode

Actually I wrote something like that about a year ago but never
published it because although it worked well enough for my purpose it
didn't close connections cleanly.

I've dusted off the patch, tidied it up and fixed the problem with the
channel close.

With the attached patch,
    ssh -W hostb:port hosta

should be functionally equivalent to

    ssh hosta netcat hostb port

Works in my limited testing (ie a couple of times, just now).
