Don't upload partials to permanent #605

@slifty

Description

@slifty

Rclone's sftp will, by default, upload a partial file and then rename. Our sftp implementation doesn't support renames, which means that this approach will result in the creation of a bunch of .partial files.

This isn't a good user experience.

We should either:

  1. Error when we are asked to create a .partial, with a message instructing the user to not use partials (--inplace).
  2. Build Permanent API support for rename and therefore add support for SFTP rename. (Support SSH_FXP_RENAME #164)
