Set ssh-keypath and identityfile

The user can set a selected ssh-keypath and identityfile which applies to all configurations.

• ssh-keypath + identityfile, user selected if other than default
• portnumber, which ssh communicates through

If global values are set, this is what the ssh parameter within the rsync command looks like

-e  "ssh -i ~/.ssh_keypath/identityfile -p NN"

where

• -i is the ssh-keypath and identityfile
• -p is the port number ssh communicates through, default port 22

If global ssh parameters are set, it applies to all configurations. It is possible to set other ssh values on each task. Global ssh-keypath and identityfile in use.
