Patch file against openssh-8.0p1 sftp-client.c

When the -R num_requests option is specified on the sftp command line, the actual maximum number of requests allowed is num_requests+1.

This means that there is no way to configure a maximum of one outstanding request at a time which is useful in certain debugging scenarios.
