SSH1 config options were removed and a variety of more secure defaults
chosen, inspired by the Debian preinit script and their sshd_config.
Users can now add other HostKeys to the sshd_config and the openssh
rc.once.d script will automatically generate the necessary keys.
I also added an option to show the randomart representation of the key
to the user.

In the sshd_config, all SSH1 related settings were removed and some
important options were explicitly enabled.
TCPKeepAlive was disabled as it is easily spoofable and a better
alternative does exist (ClientAliveInterval).
The sandbox mechanism (using seccomp) is used, if available.
