Daniel Stenberg be9ee7095e libssh2_scp_send64: added to API to provide large file transfers
The previously existing libssh2_scp_send_ex() function has no way
to send files that are larger than 'size_t' which on 32bit
systems mean 4GB. This new API uses a libssh2_int64_t type and
should thus on most modern systems be able to send enormous
files.
