Description
When I try to connect with Ssh.net 2024.1.0 to Globalscape Eft 8.2.1.30, get following error:
An established connection was aborted by the server.
at Renci.SshNet.Session.WaitOnHandle(WaitHandle waitHandle, TimeSpan timeout)
at Renci.SshNet.Session.Connect()
at Renci.SshNet.BaseClient.CreateAndConnectSession()
at Renci.SshNet.BaseClient.Connect()
But, with 2024.0.0 version, there is no problem. I supposed there's a MAC algorithm problem.

Research direction
Reproduce the connection failure against Globalscape EFT 8.2.1.30 using SSH.NET 2024.1.0, then compare it with 2024.0.0. Start at Session.Connect and the reported WaitOnHandle, BaseClient.CreateAndConnectSession, and BaseClient.Connect entries; done means identifying the changed MAC or AES-GCM behavior and confirming compatibility with a regression test.
