`OWNER RIGHTS` not allowed on identity file ACL, even if owner is in `Administrators`

Prerequisites

• Write a descriptive title.
• Make sure you are able to repro it on the latest version
• Search the existing issues.

Steps to reproduce

When a private key identity file has the OWNER RIGHTS group permission attached and the file is owned by an administrator, the OpenSSH client fails with a warning that the file's permissions are too open:

> ssh -p port -i C:\Path\To\TempDir\Keyfile destination

Bad permissions. Try removing permissions for user: \\OWNER RIGHTS (S-1-3-4) on file C:\Path\To\TempDir\Keyfile.

It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by others.
This private key will be ignored.
Load key "C:\Path\To\TempDir\Keyfile": bad permissions
destination: Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic).

My understanding is that only administrators and System can have access to the key file. It looks like the client explicitly checks for the admin and system SIDs, but does not follow an owner rights SID and checks that the file is owned by an admin. I was curious if maintainers would be open to allowing OWNER RIGHTS provided that the owner is an admin.

Expected behavior

# Identity file with `OWNER RIGHTS` permissions attached
> ssh -p port -i C:\Path\To\TempDir\Keyfile destination

# SSH succeeds

Actual behavior

# Identity file with `OWNER RIGHTS` permissions attached
> ssh -p port -i C:\Path\To\TempDir\Keyfile destination

# SSH fails
Bad permissions. Try removing permissions for user: \\OWNER RIGHTS (S-1-3-4) on file C:\Path\To\TempDir\Keyfile.
