Use skeema/knownhosts, not x/crypto/ssh/knownhosts

Package [golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/knownhosts](https://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/crypto/ssh/knownhosts)
has an issue when an SSH server has many public keys (i.e. supports multiple crypto algorithms).

For instance, if the local `known_hosts` file entries don't match the first SSH server key but match
other keys of the SSH server, the handshake fails with a key mismatch error.

See golang/go#29286 and containers/podman#23575.

Package [github.com/skeema/knownhosts](https://github.com/skeema/knownhosts) is a wrapper of
`x/crypto/ssh/knownhosts` that addresses this issue.

This commit replaces the usage of `x/crypto/ssh/knownhosts` in containers/common with
`github.com/skeema/knownhosts`.
