SSH/SFTP client module.

This module uses application `SSH`, which provides detailed information about, for example, functions, types, and options.

Argument `Server` in the SFTP functions is only to be used for SFTP sessions that have been started on existing SSH connections (that is, when the original connection type is `ssh`). Whenever the connection type is `sftp`, use the SSH connection reference only.

The following options are valid for specifying an SSH/SFTP connection (that is, can be used as configuration elements):

    [{ConnType, Addr},
     {port, Port},
     {user, UserName}
     {password, Pwd}
     {user_dir, String}
     {public_key_alg, PubKeyAlg}
     {connect_timeout, Timeout}
     {key_cb, KeyCallbackMod}]

`ConnType = ssh | sftp`.

For other types, see `ssh`.

All time-out parameters in `ct_ssh` functions are values in milliseconds.

                         Handle :: handle(),
                         Reason :: term().

Opens an SSH or SFTP connection using the information associated with `KeyOrName`.

If `Name` (an alias name for `Key`) is used to identify the connection, this name can be used as connection reference for subsequent calls. Only one open connection at a time associated with `Name` is possible. If `Key` is used, the returned handle must be used for subsequent calls (multiple connections can be opened using the configuration data specified by `Key`).

For information on how to create a new `Name`, see `ct:require/2`.

For `target_name`, see module `ct`.

`ConnType` always overrides the type specified in the address tuple in the configuration data (and in `ExtraOpts`). So it is possible to, for example, open an SFTP connection directly using data originally specifying an SSH connection. Value `host` means that the connection type specified by the host option (either in the configuration data or in `ExtraOpts`) is used.

`ExtraOpts` (optional) are extra SSH options to be added to the configuration data for `KeyOrName`. The extra options override any existing options with the same key in the configuration data. For details on valid SSH options, see application `SSH`.

                                  Reason :: term().

Receives expected data from server on the specified session channel.

If `End == close`, data is returned to the caller when the channel is closed by the server. If a time-out occurs before this happens, the function returns `{timeout,Data}` (where `Data` is the data received so far).

If `End == timeout`, a time-out is expected and `{ok,Data}` is returned both in the case of a time-out and when the channel is closed.

If `End` is a fun, this fun is called with one argument, the data value in a received `ssh_cm` message (see `ssh_connection`. The fun is to return either `true` to end the receiving operation (and have the so far collected data returned) or `false` to wait for more data from the server. Even if a fun is supplied, the function returns immediately if the server closes the channel).
