Skiff v0.2.2 — security update.

Upgrades the SSH engine russh 0.54 → 0.63.3, clearing a batch of RUSTSEC /
Dependabot advisories (unbounded allocation, pre-auth panics, and unbounded
message/banner parsing). These are DoS-class issues exploitable only by the
server you connect to — no code execution or credential disclosure — and the
server-only advisories don't apply since Skiff is a client. Recommended for all
users.

No feature or UI changes. All auth methods (password / key / agent /
keyboard-interactive), ProxyJump, and port forwarding were retested against
real servers.
