[ssh-keygen.c]
Switch ECDSA default key size to 256 bits, which according to RFC5656
should still be better than our current RSA-2048 default.

Implement Elliptic Curve Cryptography modes for key exchange (ECDH) and
host/user keys (ECDSA) as specified by RFC5656. ECDH and ECDSA offer
better performance than plain DH and DSA at the same equivalent symmetric
key length, as well as much shorter keys.
Only the mandatory sections of RFC5656 are implemented, specifically the
three REQUIRED curves nistp256, nistp384 and nistp521 and only ECDH and
ECDSA. Point compression (optional in RFC5656 is NOT implemented).
Certificate host and user keys using the new ECDSA key types are supported.
Note that this code has not been tested for interoperability and may be
subject to change.

Add buffer_get_cstring() and related functions that verify that the
string extracted from the buffer contains no embedded \0 characters*
This prevents random (possibly malicious) crap from being appended to
strings where it would not be noticed if the string is used with
a string(3) function.
Use the new API in a few sensitive places.
* actually, we allow a single one at the end of the string for now because
we don't know how many deployed implementations get this wrong, but don't
count on this to remain indefinitely.

[ssh.c]
close any extra file descriptors inherited from parent at start and
reopen stdin/stdout to /dev/null when forking for ControlPersist.
prevents tools that fork and run a captive ssh for communication from
failing to exit when the ssh completes while they wait for these fds to
close. The inherited fds may persist arbitrarily long if a background
mux master has been started by ControlPersist. cvs and scp were effected
by this.

openbsd-compat/openbsd-compat.h openbsd-compat/strptime.c] Add strptime to
the compat library which helps on platforms like old IRIX. Based on work
by djm, tested by Tom Christensen.
regress/test-exec.sh] Under certain conditions when testing with sudo
tests would fail because the pidfile could not be read by a regular user.
"cat: cannot open ...../regress/pidfile: Permission denied (error 13)"
Make sure cat is run by $SUDO. no objection from me. djm@
[channels.c]
Fix a trio of bugs in the local/remote window calculation for datagram
data channels (i.e. TunnelForward):
Calculate local_consumed correctly in channel_handle_wfd() by measuring
the delta to buffer_len(c->output) from when we start to when we finish.
The proximal problem here is that the output_filter we use in portable
modified the length of the dequeued datagram (to futz with the headers
for !OpenBSD).
In channel_output_poll(), don't enqueue datagrams that won't fit in the
peer's advertised packet size (highly unlikely to ever occur) or which
won't fit in the peer's remaining window (more likely).
In channel_input_data(), account for the 4-byte string header in
datagram packets that we accept from the peer and enqueue in c->output.

add a "ControlPersist" option that automatically starts a background
ssh(1) multiplex master when connecting. This connection can stay alive
indefinitely, or can be set to automatically close after a user-specified
duration of inactivity. bz#1330 - patch by dwmw2 AT infradead.org, but

implement a timing_safe_cmp() function to compare memory without leaking
timing information by short-circuiting like memcmp() and use it for
some of the more sensitive comparisons (though nothing high-value was
readily attackable anyway); "looks ok" markus@

expand %h to the hostname in ssh_config Hostname options. While this
sounds useless, it is actually handy for working with unqualified
hostnames:
