Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed that
golang-github-appleboy-easyssh-proxy could not be built reproducibly.

This was because the tests did not completely clean up after themselves
and this resulted in the binary package containining different contents
depending on whether the tests were run or not.

Patch attached.
