Commit Message

To figure out which libssh version is installed, checking for
ssh_get_server_publickey() is not sufficient.

ssh_get_server_publickey() has been introduced in libssh
commit bbd052202 (predating 0.8) but distributions also
backported other pre-0.8 patches, such libssh commit
963c46e4f which introduce the ssh_known_hosts_e enum.

Check the enum is available to assume the version is 0.8.

This fixes build failure on Ubuntu 18.04:

    CC      block/ssh.o
  block/ssh.c: In function 'check_host_key_knownhosts':
  block/ssh.c:281:28: error: storage size of 'state' isn't known
       enum ssh_known_hosts_e state;
                              ^~~~~
  rules.mak:69: recipe for target 'block/ssh.o' failed
  make: *** [block/ssh.o] Error 1

Ugh no, this is way more twisted and complex than really needed.

Instead, just add another build time check for
ssh_session_is_known_server, and change check_host_key_knownhosts to
use it only when found.
