Debug settings

Following settings are extra settings used for finding out specific information during FTPSync's runtime.

{
    print_list_result: bool, // lists the result of FTP LIST command, files in remote folders
    dump_config_load: bool, // prints loaded configuration prior to being merged with defaults
    print_ensure_folders: bool, // prints folders checked when ensuring remote path exists (used when there's issue with uploading into non-existing path)
    debug_remote_paths: bool, // with download or listing prints translated remote path
    after_save_watch: bool, // prints information about scanning of files for after save watch
    debug_get_local_path: bool, // prints info for translation of remote path to local path
    debug_mfmt: bool, // prints info about usage of MFMT command - setting remote last modified value
    debug_overwrite_prevention: bool // prints info about overwrite_prevention - times etc.
}
