No support for Ed25519 with Built-in SSH Plugin

[karaface]

Tried to connect using my Ed25519 key with the SSH plugin but was told my authentication key type was not supposed.

Worked just fine on WSL (Fedora).

Then I will comment, because ed25519 is the future.

Upstream issue: mscdex/ssh2#352

I was poking around the open issues and it looks like ed25519 was finally added to the ssh2 library a few days ago with v0.8.3 and node v12.0.0.

Hopefully the changes can get pulled in soon, using my key natively instead of having to ssh from my WSL instance.

Here's the link to the offending upstream issue from their github repository though it's referenced in the comment above.

Thanks and good luck on the project

Fixed via #883 and #878

I think you're supposed to use OpenSSH format instead of Putty. I'm still getting errors when attempting to use my OpenSSH ED25519 keys.

When I convert my SSH key to OpenSSH format with PuttyGen, my key is recognized but my passphrase is not parsed.
