Description

Summary of the new feature / enhancement

Currently, there is no official maintainer from microsoft to maintain openssh.

Relying on individual maintainer may result in some missing version and potentially drop out from maintaining the repository
eg. https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/openssh/9.2.2-beta1

It would be great for microsoft to maintain a chocolatey repository as well whenever there is a github release.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
