Subject: [PATCH] [utility] scp/rsync glob local paths but don't glob remote
 paths

Adds a function which wraps rsync and scp so that remote paths are not globbed
but local paths are globbed. This is because the programs have their own
globbing for remote paths. The wrap function globs args starting in / and ./
and doesn't glob paths with : in it as these are interpreted as remote paths
by these programs unless the path starts with / or ./

Fixes issue #1125
