when rsync is called with -4 or -6, pass that on to ssh [PATCH]

[Paul Slootman]

If rsync is called with -4 or -6, that option is currently ignored when
ssh is used as the transport.  The attached patch is a stab at passing
the option on to the ssh process. It checks that the remote shell
program is something that looks like ssh. Perhaps that could be done
cleaner...
