ssh: add diffie-hellman-group14-sha256 kex
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
RFC 9142 made diffie-hellman-group14-sha256 from RFC 8268 a MUST, and
it's strictly better than diffie-hellman-group14-sha1, which we already
have, and trivial to add.

> The method of key exchange used for the name "diffie-hellman-
> group14-sha256" is the same as that for "diffie-hellman-group14-sha1"
> except that the SHA256 hash algorithm is used.

Ignore the bigger groups which have a meaningful performance cost, and
don't share the same interoperability benefit.

Adapted from CL 387994.

Fixes golang/go#31731
