backend/sftp: Add sftp.args option

Browse Source 
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

Enhancement: Add config option to set SFTP command arguments
The `sftp.args` option can be passed to restic (using `-o`) to specify
custom arguments to be used by the SSH command executed by the SFTP
backend.
Before this change, a common scenario where a custom identity file was
needed for the SSH connection, required the full command to be
specified:
`-o sftp.command='ssh user@host:port -i /ssh/my_private_key -s sftp'`
With this new configuration option:
`-o sftp.args='-i /ssh/my_private_key'`
