ssh: add possibility to run command in background as root

Browse Source 
Executing a command as root was not possible when running it in background.
This is done in a similar way as with a standard execute call.

This was also a bug in ssh.py because if you tried to run a background command
on the target, the background function in target.py was passing the as_root
parameter which was not present in ssh.py.
