Multi-Hop Support

[khinshankhan]

Often, many networks are setup in a manner such as there is a gateway server and from that you can ssh into 'local machines'. On command, it's possible to do multi hop in various way, one I use is:

ssh -tt $USER@$NETWORK -tt $MACHINE

In TRAMP, there are also a couple of ways, one of the popular ones outlined here.

I mentioned both ways because it seems like this project kind of just opens an ansi-term and then does the ssh (I could be wrong, not wholly familiar with the code). I think it'd be better to use an already open TRAMP session if possible, eg if I'm on a tramp file like ~/someproject/hello.c and invoke the function, it should open the terminal in ~/someproject without requiring any user input (in a sense automatic). But these are just extra features.

TLDR: It'd be cool to add support for multi hopping.
