Remove --upload option
The --upload option has a lot of limitations and has not been widely used. Recent trends are to handle uploading data in higher-level tools (e.g. redhat-support-tool or web based management UIs) and the python ftp library does not support modern requirements like HTTP proxy traversal or encryption. Fixes Issue #217 Signed-off-by: Bryn M. Reeves <bmr@redhat.com>
