    openssh: Add detail on client side VersionAddendum
    
    FreeBSD introduced VersionAddendum for the server as a local change in
    2001 in commit 933ca70f8f88 and later extended it to the client in
    commit 9e2cbe04ff4f.
    
    In 2012 upstream added support for server VersionAddendum, in commit
    23528816dc10.  They did not add client support.
    
    We removed the client support from main in commit bffe60ead024 ("ssh:
    retire client VersionAddendum").
    
    As of the 10.0p2 release upstream has added client-side VersionAddendum.
    Make note of this in FREEBSD-upgrade's patches section.

 9) Retired patches
 
-   We no longer have client-side VersionAddendum, but we recognize and ignore
-   the configuration options to avoid breaking existing configurations.
+   We added support for client-side VersionAddendum in 2002 (commit
+   9e2cbe04ff4f) and provided a default value (e.g. FreeBSD-20220415).
+   Support was removed in commit bffe60ead024 ("ssh: retire client
+   VersionAddendum") to reduce the size of our patch set.  Upstream later
+   added the same functionality in the 10.0p2 release.  We have not restored
+   setting a default value on FreeBSD.
