ssh: deprecate and replace SigAlgo constants RFC 8332, Section 2 sets up two overlapping namespaces: public key formats and public key algorithms. * The formats are what we currently have KeyAlgo constants for, and they appear in PublicKey.Type. * The algorithms are the set of both KeyAlgo and SigAlgo constants, and they appear in Signature.Format (amongst other places). This is incoherent, because that means Signature.Format can be both a KeyAlgo (like KeyAlgoECDSA256) or a SigAlgo (like SigAlgoRSASHA2256). One solution would be to duplicate all the KeyAlgo constants into the SigAlgo namespace, but that would be confusing because applications are currently using KeyAlgos where they'd be supposed to use the new SigAlgos (while we can't deprecate the KeyAlgos because they are still necessary for the PublicKey.Type namespace). Instead, drop the separate namespaces, and use KeyAlgos throughout. There are simply some KeyAlgos that can't be a PublicKey.Type. Take the opportunity to fix the stuttering SHA22565/SHA2512 names. It's totally ok to call those hashes SHA-256 and SHA-512 without the family infix.
