OpenSSH 8.8 RSA encryption stopped working

[Heiko Tietze]

After updating Arch Linux these days I run into the issue that Gerrit refused my 
patches. That's caused by OpenSSH update to 8.8 where RSA-SSH encryption was 
disabled [1]. There are two solutions:

a) "ssh-keygen -t ed25519" and upload this key to Gerrit [2]
b) allow the deprecated cypher in the ~/.ssh/config per
    "PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-rsa"

The second method works until Debian stops supporting RSA.

Cheers,
Heiko
