Description
While implementing 2-factor login in my app, I noticed that `swift-nio-ssh` is missing support for `keyboard-interactive` authentication. I can create a pull request to add it to the `NIOSSHAvailableUserAuthenticationMethods: OptionSet` and make the client recognize keyboard-interactive messages. However, I am concerned that this change may cause issues on the server-side. So I created this issue to ask if you have any plans to support keyboard-interactive authentication in the future.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading NIOSSHAvailableUserAuthenticationMethods: OptionSet and the client authentication-message handling mentioned in the issue. Clarify the server-side compatibility expectations before changing the authentication flow. Done means the project has an agreed scope for recognizing keyboard-interactive authentication and corresponding coverage.
