[Bug 1445624] [NEW] Change SSH defaults to non-SHA-1 by 16.04

[Joey Stanford]

Public bug reported:

For Security reasons, the Ubuntu Distro should change SSH defaults to
use non-SHA-1 by 16.04.  That is, to default to SHA2 and, ideally, not
permit SHA1.  This may break bzr+ssh on LP if done before
