Description

Problem:
Each remote command (polling, camel-ssh) creates a log entry (Login/Logout on the remote managed device) polluting the log and creating a load on managed devices.

Reason:
In camel version 2.24.2 the ssh components uses a static method which connects and disconnects with each request/command => No persistent connection possible

Request:
Leave the default behavior as is. Add a new option "persistent" to the component which will persist the connection but will create and drop the ssh command channel with each command only. Only recreate the connection if host/login or password changes. Pass back an exception if a connection is lost to let the route handle that case.
