New max_conns option enables the use of multiple connections to improve responsiveness during large file transfers. Thanks to Timo Savola for doing most of the implementation work, and thanks to CEA.fr for sponsoring remaining bugfixes and cleanups!

The buflimit workaround is now disabled by default. The corresponding bug in OpenSSH has been fixed in 2007 (cf. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=365541#37), so this shouldn't be needed anymore. If you depend on this workaround, please let the SSHFS maintainers know, otherwise support for the workaround will be removed completely in a future version.
