Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the encryption-key exchange failure on Ubuntu 22.04 and trace how ssh2-rs surfaces libssh2's Session(-5) error. Done means identifying the cause and verifying a successful exchange with regression coverage or a documented minimal reproducer.
