Wayne Davison 276cc45571 Added a --no-cd option to support/lsh so that the script can be used by
the testsuite.  Improved the home-directory-changing code and added an
error message when "localhost" is not the hostname specified.  Use the
updated script in the testsuite instead of creating a pretend-ssh script
in a couple spots.

# capable of pretending to connect to "localhost". This is useful
# for testing or for running a local copy where the sender and the
# receiver needs to use different options (e.g. --fake-super). If
# we get a -l USER option, we try to use "sudo -u USER" to run the
# command.
