Log:
  Remove insecure ciphers from GCE sshd configuration

  They were added for unclear reasons in r277263.  The current OpenSSH
  defaults (7.5+) are reasonable, and do not include the insecure rc4 cipher:

                     chacha20-poly1305 at openssh.com,
                     aes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr,
                     aes128-gcm at openssh.com,aes256-gcm at openssh.com,
                     aes128-cbc,aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc

  I think I recall there being a reason for a specific list of ciphers on GCE
  at the time, but I do not recall what it was, and cannot find any
  current GCE documentation of such a list.

  So, just revert the explicit configuration and use sane openssh defaults.
