Some notable changes, from upstream's release notes:
- sshd(8): Remove support for obsolete "host/port" syntax.
- ssh(1): When prompting whether to record a new host key, accept the key
fingerprint as a synonym for "yes".
- ssh-keygen(1): when acting as a CA and signing certificates with an RSA
key, default to using the rsa-sha2-512 signature algorithm.
- ssh(1), sshd(8), ssh-keygen(1): this release removes the "ssh-rsa"
(RSA/SHA1) algorithm from those accepted for certificate signatures.
- ssh-sk-helper(8): this is a new binary. It is used by the FIDO/U2F
support to provide address-space isolation for token middleware
libraries (including the internal one).
- ssh(1): this release enables UpdateHostkeys by default subject to some
conservative preconditions.
- scp(1): this release changes the behaviour of remote to remote copies
(e.g. "scp host-a:/path host-b:") to transfer through the local host
by default.
- scp(1): experimental support for transfers using the SFTP protocol as
a replacement for the venerable SCP/RCP protocol that it has
traditionally used.
Additional integration work is needed to support FIDO/U2F in the base
system.
Deprecation Notice
------------------
OpenSSH will disable the ssh-rsa signature scheme by default in the
next release.

Local changes introduced an OPENSSH_VERSION macro, but this conflicts
with a macro of the same name introduced with OepnsSL 1.1.1

This completely removes client-side support for the SSH 1 protocol,
which was already disabled in 12 but is still enabled in 11. For that
reason, we will not be able to merge 7.6p1 or newer back to 11.
Re-apply r99054 by des in 2002. This was accidentally dropped
by the update to OpenSSH 6.5p1 (r261320).
This change is actually taken from r387082 of
ports/security/openssh-portable/files/patch-ssh.c

Prior to this, setting VersionAddendum will be a no-op: one will
always have BASE_VERSION + " " + VERSION_HPN for VersionAddendum
set in the config and a bare BASE_VERSION + VERSION_HPN when there
is no VersionAddendum is set.
HPN patch requires both parties to have the "hpn" inside their
advertized versions, so we add VERSION_HPN to the VERSION_BASE
if HPN is enabled and omitting it if HPN is disabled.
VersionAddendum now uses the following logics:
* unset (default value): append " " and VERSION_ADDENDUM;
* VersionAddendum is set and isn't empty: append " "
and VersionAddendum;
* VersionAddendum is set and empty: don't append anything.

the bandwidth of long fat pipes (i.e. 100Mbps+ trans-oceanic or
trans-continental links). Bandwidth-delay products up to 64MB are
supported.
Also add support (not compiled by default) for the None cypher. The
None cypher can only be enabled on non-interactive sessions (those
without a pty where -T was not used) and must be enabled in both
the client and server configuration files and on the client command
line. Additionally, the None cypher will only be activated after
authentication is complete. To enable the None cypher you must add
-DNONE_CIPHER_ENABLED to CFLAGS via the make command line or in
/etc/make.conf.
This code is a style(9) compliant version of these features extracted
from the patches published at:
http://www.psc.edu/networking/projects/hpn-ssh/
Merging this patch has been a collaboration between me and Bjoern.

I have worked hard to reduce diffs against the vendor branch. One
notable change in that respect is that we no longer prefer DSA over
RSA - the reasons for doing so went away years ago. This may cause
some surprises, as ssh will warn about unknown host keys even for
hosts whose keys haven't changed.
