When a shell session is established against a system which offers limited shells, its very common to run into something like "help" being a native command in the target. MSF now intercepts those as built-ins and presents the MSF shell help instead of letting the user see the relevant output from the target. Implement a fix by allowing the user to prepend built-ins with '.' to pass-through execution of the intended command (such as '.help' being executed as 'help') to the target. Testing: Local testing with racadm SSH shell - works as intended
