upstream commit
Add 'reverse' dynamic forwarding which combines dynamic forwarding (-D) with remote forwarding (-R) where the remote-forwarded port expects SOCKS-requests. The SSH server code is unchanged and the parsing happens at the SSH clients side. Thus the full SOCKS-request is sent over the forwarded channel and the client parses c->output. Parsing happens in channel_before_prepare_select(), _before_ the select bitmask is computed in the pre[] handlers, but after network input processing in the post[] handlers. help and ok djm@ Upstream-ID: aa25a6a3851064f34fe719e0bf15656ad5a64b89
