#293: error in direct_tcpip.c example

----------------------+--------------------
 The example direct_tcpip.c doesn't take care of EAGAIN case return by
 libssh2_channel_write. This can lead to non transmitted file when this
 error is raised, while this should just delay the transmission because the
 socket are busy.
 To see the error, just run a process with high priority on the receiver of
 data trasnmitted through the libssh2_channel_write.
 Solution is just to retry the call to libssh2_channel_write one (or
 several) other time.

 Here under is the current code taken from the git repo today:
 Git repo code:

 wr = 0;
 do {
   i = libssh2_channel_write(channel, buf, len);
   if (i < 0) {
     fprintf(stderr, "libssh2_channel_write: %d\n", i);
     goto shutdown;
   }
   wr += i;
 } while(i > 0 && wr < len);

 Code patched:
 wr = 0;
 do {
   i = libssh2_channel_write(channel, buf, len);
   if (i >= 0)
   {
     wr += i;
   }
   else if(i == LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN)
   {
     fprintf(stderr, "libssh2_channel_write: LIBSSH2_ERROR_EAGAIN, retry to
 write\n");
   }
   else {
     fprintf(stderr, "libssh2_channel_write: %d\n", i);
     goto shutdown;
   }
 } while(wr < len);
