[Proposal] Add SFTP filesystem driver out of the box

[jacobmllr95]

In a current project we need to connect to a SFTP server on the fly (with dynamic username/password).
Laravel currently only has a FTP driver out of the box.

I know thats its quit easy to add a new storage driver as described in the docs but the FilesystemManager is then still missing the method to create the driver on the fly.

I do also know that its possible to solve that by extending the FilesystemManager and FilesystemServiceProvider but IMHO Laravel should ship with SFTP support out of the box.

https://flysystem.thephpleague.com/adapter/sftp/ this adds the adapter to flysystem.

I disagree it should be in core. 99% of apps don't interact with SFTP in any way.

The question is how many do with FTP.
I just expected that when FTP is supported, SFTP is too. Because they are kinda similar.

Because they are kinda similar

Only by their name. Technically they're two different worlds.

I'm with @tomschlick on this matter.
