backend/sftp: Add sftp.args option
Allow setting custom arguments for the `sftp` backend, by using the `sftp.args` option. This is similar to the approach already implemented in the `rclone` backend, to support new arguments without requiring future code changes for each different SSH argument. Closes #4241
