The mount path and the sftp-server that serves it must agree on the Windows path form, so both now derive from a single ssh.exe. Otherwise sshocker auto-detects an sftp-server off PATH that may come from a different toolchain than the one the path was converted for. Signed-off-by: Jan Dubois <jan.dubois@suse.com>

This gives
SftpServerForSSHits first caller, which #5270 deliberately left unwired.Part of a series continuing the native Windows OpenSSH work from #5205 and #5270: #5298, #5299, #5300, #5301. They are independent and can merge in any order. #5298 and #5301 both touch
pkg/sshutil/sshutil.go, in different functions, and apply cleanly in either order.Note that the Windows CI runner uses MSYS2 / Git for Windows, so it exercises the Cygwin path. End-to-end validation on a plain Windows host, with no Cygwin toolchain present, arrives with the plain-Windows CI jobs in a later PR.
