Now that we've got at least some SDCTR modes working (and aes256-ctr is our

default preferred cipher), add code to inject SSH_MSG_IGNOREs to randomise
the IV when using CBC-mode ciphers.  Each cipher has a flag to indicate
whether it needs this workaround, and the SSH packet output maze has gained
some extra complexity to implement it.
