ssh2 authentication and ip forwarding

[Markus Friedl]

agent forwarding is not in ssh2 since we don't do the
officical agent protocol (there is no spec) and since
we would have to do our own proprietary protocol for this.
but if someone sends 'clean' patches, we can add this to
openssh, of course.
