    * Changes
    - Changed package name
    - Implemented OpenSSH and LibSSH2 drivers
    - Added unit tests

    * Known bugs
    - testSshCopyId(LibSSH2Test):
    It seems pecl/ssh2 is looking for a publickey subsystem not available(?) on my test machine (debian OS).
    The test fails with the following message:
    "ssh2_publickey_init(): Unable to initialize publickey subsystem(-21) Unable to request publickey subsystem"
