Simon Tatham 9d687e4177 Pageant docs: improve the new OpenSSH section.
I tried setting this up on a different Windows machine today and had
some slightly different experiences. I found that in at least some
situations the command 'Include c:\...\pageant.conf' will cause
OpenSSH to emit a log message saying it's trying to open the file
'~/.ssh/c:\...\pageant.conf', which it then doesn't find. But 'Include
pageant.conf' works, because that's interpreted relative to the .ssh
directory that it's already found.

(I don't know why this happened on one Windows machine and not
another, since I only have a sample size of two. But an obvious guess
would be a bug fix in the Windows OpenSSH port, present in the version
on one of the machines I tried, and not in the other. Certainly that
failure mode looks to me like 'apply Unix instead of Windows rules to
decide what's an absolute pathname'.)

Also, clarified that all of this only works with the version of
OpenSSH that's available as a Windows optional feature, and not with
the MSYS-based one that ships with Windows git.
