Curve25519/448 key agreement for SSH



Aris and me have prepared a document describing key agreement using the
CFRG curves for Secure Shell.  As you know, curve25519-sha256%libssh.org@localhost
is already implemented by libssh, OpenSSH, Dropbear, and some others.
This is about putting the description of that into IETF format, and to
add the Curve448 hedge variant chosen by CFRG.  It might not be detailed
enough for independent implementation, but we hope to get there.  Any
review and feedback is welcome.

PS. There is https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-bjh21-ssh-ed25519 but
that talks about Ed25519 signatures.  The document above is about key
agreement.
