sftp-server: add a chroot option

[Eloi Benoist-Vanderbeken]

Hi Damien,

Thank you for taking the time to answer and sorry to hear that, let me know if I can help.
I have more than a decade of experience in vulnerability research and exploitation, I could probably help closing a few bugs.

Take care,

Eloi

Sorry, we have almost no time to look at feature patches at the moment as
we are receiving a flood of vulnerability reports, many of them bogus and
most of them generated by LLMs.

This will probably continue for a while unfortunately.
