Enable X11 and agent forwarding for multiplexed connections

This patch enables X11 and agent forwarding for multiplexed connections. I
can't see any way in the protocol that allows for forwarding multiple DISPLAYs
or agents so this patch inherits them from the master connection.

We could do a private protocol extension, but I'm not sure whether it is worth
it.

A similar patch was committed and will be in openssh-4.2.

We're not going to do distinct forwarding of DISPLAY at the moment. If anyone
wants to work on a protocol extension to make this happen, please open another
enhancement bug.
