Server kex/host key parsing failures no longer output a stack trace unless in debug mode.

Their certificate-embedded counterparts are enabled as well.

As with RSA, it *is* possible for DSA keys to be of variable length (not
just 1024 bits), so I've added `{'variable_key_len': True}` to the relevant
`HOST_KEY_TYPES` entries, although this key-value pair is otherwise unused.

 ## ChangeLog
 
+### v3.3.0-dev (???)
+ - Added Python 3.13 support.
+ - Added built-in policies for Ubuntu 24.04 LTS server & client, OpenSSH 9.8, and OpenSSH 9.9.
+ - Added IPv6 support for DHEat and connection rate tests.
+ - Added TCP port information to JSON policy scan results; credit [Fabian Malte Kopp](https://github.com/dreizehnutters).
+ - Added LANcom LCOS server recognition and Ed448 key extraction; credit [Daniel Lenski](https://github.com/dlenskiSB).
+ - Fixed crash when running with `-P` and `-T` options simultaneously.
+ - Fixed host key tests from only reporting a key type at most once despite multiple hosts supporting it; credit [Daniel Lenski](https://github.com/dlenskiSB).
+ - Fixed DHEat connection rate testing on MacOS X and BSD platforms; credit [Drew Noel](https://github.com/drewmnoel) and [Michael Osipov](https://github.com/michael-o).
+ - Fixed invalid JSON output when a socket error occurs while performing a client audit.
+ - When scanning multiple targets (using `-T`/`--targets`), the `-p`/`--port` option will now be used as the default port (set to 22 if `-p`/`--port` is not given).  Hosts specified in the file can override this default with an explicit port number (i.e.: "host1:1234").  For example, when using `-T targets.txt -p 222`, all hosts in `targets.txt` that do not explicitly include a port number will default to 222; when using `-T targets.txt` (without `-p`), all hosts will use a default of 22.
+ - Now reports ECDSA and DSS fingerprints when in verbose mode; partial credit [Daniel Lenski](https://github.com/dlenskiSB).
+ - Added 1 new cipher: `grasshopper-ctr128`.
+ - Added 2 new key exchanges: `mlkem768x25519-sha256`, `sntrup761x25519-sha512`.
+
 ### v3.2.0 (2024-04-22)
  - Added implementation of the DHEat denial-of-service attack (see `--dheat` option; [CVE-2002-20001](https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2002-20001)).
  - Expanded filter of CBC ciphers to flag for the Terrapin vulnerability.  It now includes more rarely found ciphers.
