AsyncSSH 2.10.0 released!

[Ron Frederick]

AsyncSSH version 2.10.0 is now available on Github and PyPI, with some new features and bug fixes. Here’s a list of changes since 2.9.0:

* Added new get_server_auth_methods() function which returns the set
of auth methods available for a given user and SSH server.

* Added support for new line_echo argument when creating a server
channel which controls whether input in the line editor is echoed
to the output immediately or under the control of the application,
allowing more control over the ordering of input and output.

* Added explicit support for RSA SHA-2 certificate algorithms.
Previously, SHA-2 signatures were supported using the original
ssh-rsa-...@openssh.com algorithm name, but recent versions
of SSH now disable this algorithm by default, so the new SHA-2
algorithm names need to be advertised for SHA-2 signatures to
work when using OpenSSH certificates.

* Improved handling of config file loading when options argument is
used, allowing config loading to be overridden at connect() time
even if the options passed in referenced a config file.

* Improved speed of unit tests by avoiding some network timeouts
when connecting to invalid addresses.

* Merged GitHub workflows contributed by GitHub user hexchain to
run unit tests and collect code coverage information on multiple
platforms and Python versions. Thanks so much for this work!

* Fixed issue with GSS auth unit tests hanging on Windows.

* Fixed issue with known_hosts matching when ProxyJump is being used.
Thanks go to GitHub user velavokr for reporting this and helping
to debug it.

* Fixed type annotations for SFTP client and server open methods.
Thanks go to Marat Sharafutdinov for reporting this!
