fix: potential race conditions:
default.rsyncssh will now channel deletes also through rsync and treats moves
as blocking events.
fix: ']' is not escaped for rsync rules, since rsync only applies

are found.

were not correctly translated
fix: added --ignore-errors to rsync when deleting files, so it will not miss a delete
