Fix for memory leak

There is small memory leak in the do_ssh2_kex() routine in sshd.c.
Line 2195 in sshd.c states:
myproposal[PROPOSAL_SERVER_HOST_KEY_ALGS] = list_hostkey_types();
Where list_hostkey_types() returns a pointer allocated by the xstrdup
call (line 735). This pointer should be freed in the calling routine
do_ssh2_kex().
