SFTP Logging Redux.

[Robert Mooney]

It looks like you're logging the requested action, not the result.  For
instance:

log("(%d/%d/%s) File/Dir opened: %s (%s,%04o)"...);
fd = open(name, flags, mode);

Unless I'm missing something about the functionality of log(), I would
expect it to come after the open(), and include information as to
whether or not the action actually succeeded.

Also, a switch to a) turn on logging, and b) set the verbosity of the
logging would be cool.

In general, I think it's easier for a developer to turn his back on 
your patch if it's adding functionality without requiring the user
request it explicitly.

Nice idea though, I would like to see something similar committed.
