ssh/test: skip KEX test if unsupported by system SSH client
Skip the key exchange test when using the system's ssh CLI if the
required KEX algorithm (e.g., mlkem768x25519-sha256) is not supported.
This is determined by running ssh -Q kex and checking for the presence
of the target algorithm.
Prevents false test failures in CI environments with older or limited
SSH implementations.
