Description
Hi
Is it possible to make more detailed exceptions?
For example, I'm trying to upload the file which already exists on the server.
_client.UploadFile(stream, "Uploads/filename.txt", false);
I'm receiving Common.SshException with InnerException=null and Message="Failure"
I also receiving the same exception with this code (when remote file name is not specified):
_client.UploadFile(stream, "Uploads", false);
How can I understand where the bug is when all exceptions are the same?

Research direction
Start from the UploadFile entry point and reproduce both examples: uploading an existing remote file and omitting the remote filename. Trace how each failure becomes Common.SshException, then determine what distinct diagnostic information is available. Done means the two failure cases can be distinguished without relying on an empty InnerException.
