This is the concern I have here. We are not explicitly setting these in
sshd_config and using defaults. Why does default cipher list show
chacha20 when it is not supporting it?

Or is it the suggested method from upstream that all downstream
instances should set cipherlist explicitly omitting chacha20 when fips
is enabled?

This list is coming from here:
https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/blob/master/myproposal.h#L59

I'm certain that we are not adding any cipher list explicitly.
