bug in documentation for "Protocol" option

[Rob Hagopian]

I believe I was told that there are some theoretical weaknesses with
protocol 1? And since ssh.com uses 2 by default shouldn't this be the same
for openssh?

Also, in another case of the default isn't really the default:

#   StrictHostKeyChecking no

The default is actually yes if it's commented out (and I believe this one
should be yes even though I always turn it off manually :-) ) so the conf
file should be changed?
