openssh bugs - Aug 2003 - [Bug 556] TCP_NODELAY not set completely for port forwarding

sshd already sets nodelay for the connection, but conditionally, and
only for interactive sessions, so this is the well known problem:

why does sshd traditionally set no delay only for interactive sessions.

This patch does not specifically fix port forwarding, as it fixes the problem 
where TCP_NODELAY is not set on all types of connections.  I was using SSH for 
port forwarding, with a non-interactive connection, and was receiving problems 
since TCP_NODELAY was not being set.

By adding this patch, or something similar, the buffering problem I saw with 
small but frequent data packets.
