Description

Sometimes we would store the private key as a string\bytes in the remote server site, and then access the SFTP functions,
The JSCH API already provides a possibility to add the private key as bytes, while VFS doesn't support so,
JSch.java
public void addIdentity(String name, byte[] prvkey, byte[] pubkey, byte[] passphrase)
