Sometimes it's not possible to place the .my.cnf file (containing the db password) into the users home folder on remote. So it'll be nice to specify a different location for that file.
The option mysql.mysqldump.options only works for mysqldump and not the mysql command that checks the db size and tablenames before syncing. Plus it doesn't add the --defaults-file option as first option which it needs to work properly.
So I introduced this option separately.
