ServerAliveInterval support for SSH1

Yes, I know, SSH1 ... in my partial defence, I made this change in 2004 at a friend's request, when it was marginally less obsolete than it is today.  Still, I feel bad about letting the patch sit only in Debian forever, so I feel obliged to send this up here!

The attached patch adds partial support for ServerAliveInterval in SSH1.  ServerAliveCountMax doesn't work (and is documented as such) because we don't get a response to SSH_MSG_IGNORE, but I think this is as good as it's possible to get.

We're in the process of turning off SSH1 for good now, so we don't want to add any more features.
