Ubuntu 20.04/amd64: all tests passed [openssh-SNAP-20210224.tar.gz]

Seeing this available in the server, something I'd somehow missed, led
me to test it out.

Not a regression but an existing issue (seen in 8.3p1), unknown if bug
or comprehension issue but reporting now to fix either docs or code
before release:

  # /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
  PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms -ssh-rsa,-ssh-rsa-cert-*,-rsa*

  # command-line:
  sshd -T | grep -i '^PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes'

  pubkeyacceptedkeytypes ssh-ed25519-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,sk-ssh-ed25519-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,sk-ecdsa-sha2-nistp256-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,rsa-sha2-512-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,rsa-sha2-256-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,ssh-rsa-cert-v01@xxxxxxxxxxx,ssh-ed25519,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,sk-ssh-ed25519@xxxxxxxxxxx,sk-ecdsa-sha2-nistp256@xxxxxxxxxxx,rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sha2-256

So besides the option not being renamed or duplicated under both names
for compatibility ... the glob removals don't work, and attempts to
remove rsa-sha2-256 explicitly don't work here either.  Something seems
to be adding them back in?
