Description
This library already supported Shell/SFTP/SCP/... but I have no idea to use this library to create a custom ssh channel with custom ChannelType.
The 'ChannelType' meaning refer to RFC 4254 5.1: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4254#section-5.1
byte SSH_MSG_CHANNEL_OPEN
string channel type in US-ASCII only
uint32 sender channel
uint32 initial window size
uint32 maximum packet size
.... channel type specific data follows
The 'channel type' is a name, as described in [SSH-ARCH] and
[SSH-NUMBERS], with similar extension mechanisms.

Research direction
Start by reading SSH.NET's existing Shell, SFTP, and SCP channel implementations, then compare their channel-opening behavior with RFC 4254 section 5.1. Determine the API and protocol behavior needed to create a channel with an arbitrary custom ChannelType; the issue is complete when that use case is supported and covered by appropriate tests.
