Well, we had a 'make sure we can do a real connection' test. But that
might just use whatever implementation is available.

Specifically, in bzrlib/tests/test_sftp_tranpsort.py we have:
class SSHVendorConnection(TestCaseWithSFTPServer):
    """Test that the ssh vendors can all connect.

    Verify that a full-handshake (SSH over loopback TCP) sftp connection
works.

    We have 3 sftp implementations in the test suite:
      'loopback': Doesn't use ssh, just uses a local socket. Most tests are
                  done this way to save the handshaking time, so it is not
                  tested again here
      'none':     This uses paramiko's built-in ssh client and server,
and layers
                  sftp on top of it.
      None:       If 'ssh' exists on the machine, then it will be
spawned as a
                 child process.
    """


So we do test that we can actually connect with each. But unfortunately
it is done by manually setting 'self._test_vendor = ssh.ParamikoVendor'.

So we know that we can connect with at least Paramiko and loopback (I
don't think we are testing None.)

What we need is a test of _get_ssh_vendor(). We could restrict the path
to just the local working directory, which will force 'ssh -V' to fail,
and that can check that we fall back to paramiko.
