Upstream in commit 972d723484d8 ("split signkey_type and signature_type
for RSA sha1 vs sha256") has added strict checking of pubkey algorithms
which made keys with SHA-256 hashing algorithm unusable as they still
reuse the `ssh-rsa` public key format. So fix this by disabling the
check for `rsa-sha2-256` pubkeys.

I'm unable to connect with the latest Dropbear with my rsa-sha2-256:

 debug1: kex_input_ext_info: server-sig-algs=<rsa-sha2-256,ssh-rsa>
 debug1: SSH2_MSG_SERVICE_ACCEPT received
 debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey
 debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
 debug1: Offering public key: RSA 
SHA256:ZLONs7adjPBljemwKAX5dXDiKPDVh4fsStkqi2eJsiI cardno:000610530066
 debug1: Server accepts key: pkalg rsa-sha2-256 blen 535
 Connection closed by 192.168.1.1 port 22
