* Security:
* CVE-2026-59843: Denial of service via zero advertised channel packet size
(accidentally missed from previous release backports)

* Support for host-bound public key authentication
(publickey-hostbound-v00@openssh.com)
* Use curve25519 implementation from mbedTLS and libgcrypt
* New functions for signing arbitrary data (commits) with SSH keys

* sshsig_verify()
* Support for FIDO/U2F keys (internal implementation using libfido2)
* Compatible with OpenSSH: should work out of the box
* Extensible with callbacks
