Use a better tokeniser for ssh/sshd_config parsing

I plan to commit this soon - it switches ssh_config and sshd_config
parsing to the argv_split() tokeniser, and gives this tokeniser the
ability to terminate when it encounters an unquoted '#' character.

This should fix this bug, but also improve quote handling in
configuration files generally. Note that the tokeniser is not used for
command-line arguments (e.g. ProxyCommand), so there should be no
behaviour change there other than fixing the '#' truncation regression.
