ssh: don't close the connection on an unparseable public key

In the server's publickey authentication path, a public key blob that
ParsePublicKey could not decode caused serverAuthenticate to return an
error, tearing down the whole connection. A key we cannot parse is part
of an individual authentication attempt, not a transport-level framing
error, so it must fail only that attempt. This lets the client fall
back to other keys or authentication methods.
