Uppity: clear the right KEXINIT packet at kex startup!

Browse Source 
Just spotted this in eyeball review: we're about to construct our new
outgoing KEXINIT and write it into the strbuf s->outgoing_kexinit. So
we should clear that strbuf first. But in fact we were clearing
s->client_kexinit, which aliases s->outgoing_kexinit in an SSH client,
but in a server, aliases s->incoming_kexinit.

This was harmless in PuTTY (since the strbuf we cleared was the right
one anyway). And it was harmless in Uppity's initial kex (since the
strbuf we _meant_ to clear was empty anyway). But if Uppity had ever
initiated a rekey, this would have exploded messily.
