sftp urls

[Martin Pool]

There has been some unfortunate flux in how sftp urls are interpreted as
various patches and fixes have come in.

The proposal from robertc is that 

  sftp://host/path       is absolute
  sftp://host/~/path     is homedir-relative

Apparently the current behaviour where you must have //path for absolute
is hurting/confusing people.

This is consistent with lftp and baz, amongst other programs, and seems
to be consistent with the most recent sftp rfcs.  I will probably merge
something from Robert to fix this in the next couple of days.  If you
have been running bzr.dev or snapshots this may change the behaviour --
sorry, but it goes with the territory.
