  1. fs: fix command line flag being ignored when set to its default value 

    A backend flag set on the command line to a value that happened to
equal its default was silently ignored, letting the config file win
instead.

For example --sftp-user defaults to the current user, so connecting as
that same user with --sftp-user=USER had no effect and caused rclone
to use the value from the config file.
