upstream: fseek to end of known_hosts before writing to it.

POSIX and ANSI C require that applications call fseek or similar between
read and writing to a RW file.  OpenBSD doesn't enforce this, but some
(System V derived) platforms need this to prevent it from writing a
spurious extra byte (in this case, a newline).  ok djm@ deraadt@
