ssh_config.5 manpage patch for ConnectTimeout description

Since the ConnectTimeout ssh option was introduced in 2003 (see https://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=207), the value of this option was extended from the initial TCP connection to the full initial ssh protocol handshake. The initial documentation is now incorrect and  the attached patch proposal attempts to better reflect the current behavior.
