`ssh-keygen -Y sign` only selects the signing algorithm `rsa-sha2-512`
and this prevents ssh-agent implementations that can't support sha512
from signing messages.
An example of this is TPMs which mostly only really supports sha256
widely.
This change enables `ssh-keygen -Y sign` to honor the `hashalg` option
for the signing algorithm.
