[GITEA] Restrict certificate type for builtin SSH server

- While doing some sanity checks over OpenSSH's code for how they
handle certificates authentication. I stumbled on an condition that
checks the certificate type is really an user certificate on the
server-side authentication. This checks seems to be a formality and just
for the sake of good domain seperation, because an user and host
certificate don't differ in their generation, verification or flags that
can be included.
- Add this check to the builtin SSH server to stay close to the
unwritten SSH specification.
- This is an breaking change for setups where the builtin SSH server is
being used and for some reason host certificates were being used for
authentication.
