openssh: Add detail on client side VersionAddendum

FreeBSD introduced VersionAddendum for the server as a local change in
2001 in commit 933ca70f8f and later extended it to the client in
commit 9e2cbe04ff.

In 2012 upstream added support for server VersionAddendum, in commit
23528816dc10.  They did not add client support.

We removed the client support in commit bffe60ead0 ("ssh: retire
client VersionAddendum").

As of the 10.0p2 release upstream has added client-side VersionAddendum.
Make note of this in FREEBSD-upgrade's patches section.

9) Retired patches
We no longer have client-side VersionAddendum.
We added support for client-side VersionAddendum in 2002 (commit
9e2cbe04ff4f) and provided a default value (e.g. FreeBSD-20220415).
Support was removed in commit bffe60ead024 ("ssh: retire client
VersionAddendum") to reduce the size of our patch set. Upstream later
added the same functionality in the 10.0p2 release. We have not restored
setting a default value on FreeBSD.
