Match command for ssh_config

We want this behaviour because it's potentially dangerous to surprise
oneself with a remote command where none was expected. Moreover,
changing the behaviour after it's been this way for a while is doubly
dangerous.

IMO it's better to give people who really care about this the ability
to set RemoteCommand only if there was no command-line command in the
first place. E.g. this patch allows stuff like:

Match command=""
    RemoteCommand blah
