#164: Knownhost API handles comments badly

Comment(by bagder):

 Right, we would use a new version of libssh2_knownhost_add() that supports
 the comment part. Since we internally would store the key and comment
 separately, we would probably just make libssh2_knownhost_get not return
 any comment at all since the public struct has no such field.

 Not ideal, but it would make the file parsing know comments and it could
 make the key comparison stuff to work. And it would be the same ABI.
