upstream: Fill in missing man page bits for U2F security key support:
Mention the new key types, the ~/.ssh/id_ecdsa_sk file, ssh's SecurityKeyProvider keyword, the SSH_SK_PROVIDER environment variable, and ssh-keygen's new -w and -x options. Copy the ssh-sk-helper man page from ssh-pkcs11-helper with minimal substitutions. ok djm@ OpenBSD-Commit-ID: ef2e8f83d0c0ce11ad9b8c28945747e5ca337ac4
