[BUG] - Can't handle missing IdentityFile in ssh config

[aedm]

Description

The ssh command automatically tries to use ~/.ssh/id_rsa as a private ssh key, while termscp doesn't. Termscp needs IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa to be explicitly specified in the config file.

Steps to reproduce

Given the following entry in ~/.ssh/config:

Host myserver
    Hostname 1.2.3.4
    User ubuntu
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa

both ssh myserver and termscp myserver work as expected.

But if I remove IdentityFile from ~/.ssh/config:

Host myserver
    Hostname 1.2.3.4
    User ubuntu

then ssh myserver still works. But termscp myserver asks for a password. When I press enter, it fails to log in with the following message: authentication failed ([Session(-18)] Authentication failed (username/password))

Expected behaviour

If ssh myserver works in the absence of IdentityFile, then termscp myserver works, too.

Environment

• OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
• Architecture x64
• Rust version: n/a
• termscp version: 0.12.2
• Protocol used: scp
• Remote server version and name: n/a
