Aggregate an SftpServerSession in the SftpServer, delegating its
initialization to the new SSHSession factory.
borrow_channel returns a non-owning channel handle and releases
the session lock, with access gated to PlainSftpServerSession via
PrivatePassProvider. Unlike release_channel, channel ownership
stays with the process for its lifetime, closing the channel leak
on reconnect.
Consume an rvalue SSHSession in order to create an SftpServerSession.
Create a ghost SSHSession for the time being, using a custom, empty key
provider.
Add a method to borrow a PlainSSHSession's underlying libssh session,
restricting it to the PlainSftpServerSession via a private pass.
Delete copy/move operations on the PlainSftpServerSession.
Copy the function that creates a libssh sftp_session to use in
PlainSftpServerSession. Mark the original for eventual deletion.

(Breaks tests.)
Convert the make_sftp_session helper to a private static method, so that
it can access the private typedef for the SftpSessionUptr.
Libssh uses `ssh_session` for a type name, so rename the field to avoid
shadowing.
Reproduce existing code to initialize the sshfs process into the
PlainSftpServerSession, with a minor tweak of dropping an unused param.
Mark old versions for removal.
To ensure we remain in the "Plain plane" at compile time and let us
avoid casts entirely. Mocking will be achieved later via a
MockableSingleton wrap of libssh (happening elsewhere).
PlainSftpServerSession is a mouthful. There is no SftpClientSession, so
just remove the Server and document the class. Then adapt variable names
to avoid shadowing libssh's sftp_session, as well as ssh_session.
Rename a few more vars to avoid shadowing libssh types.
Rename SSHSession::force_shutdown to express its true intent: shutting
down custom sockets, which libssh won't disconnect on its own. While
we're not ssh-ing over custom sockets yet, that is planned for VSOCK.
