[MERGE] ftp transport, dsilver's branch

[Matthieu Moy]

Hi,

I've updated again my ftp branch. I believe it's ready for merging
now (I also made ftp put atomic, and throw the correct exception when
stat-ing an inexistant file - otherwise, one can't push to a new
location).

Here are the changes compared to bzr.dev:
