ssh: return ServerAuthError after too many auth failures

if a client is disconnected due to too many authentication attempts
we should return a ServerAuthError instead of a generic error.

Some users check the error returned by NewServerConn to determine
whether or not a client attempted to authenticate.

Fixes golang/go#69191
