OpenSSH 7.8p1 interop failure with Twisted Conch

This isn't an OpenSSH bug, but just in case anyone else is ambitious
enough to automatically run interoperability tests against other SSH
implementations, here's a heads-up:

  https://twistedmatrix.com/trac/ticket/9515

The problem is that ssh-keygen now generates new-format private keys by
default, but conch can't read them.  It's possible to work around this
by using -m PEM in the test suite as follows, and then everything works
fine:

  https://salsa.debian.org/ssh-team/openssh/commit/38966b4afedee3bb57d3b1b0a7df4ff438fb9fd0

I'm not proposing to do this upstream, though, as long-term it's better
that the interop tests check that conch can read the current private key
format.  I plan to revert this in Debian as soon as I've got a patch
landed upstream and cherry-picked into the Debian Twisted packages.
