fix: Pass repeating_payload option to server (#867)
If client was started with --repeating-payload option, tell the
server to use the repeating_payload also.
Since repeating_payload is a client specific option at the moment and
we don't tell the server if repeating_payload was set not not,
server always uses randomized patterns in reverse and bidirectional
modes disregarding what patterns the client was told to generate.
So, if client was started with both --repeating-payload and --reverse,
the server would still send the randomized data to the client which
doesn't seem right.
This commit fixes this issue.
