Add official support for ssh ECDSA encryption key

ECDSA keys were functional and the only EC keys available in Sterling prior version 6.2. We have already several partners and servers workings with those keys.

We can't properly import new ECDSA keys in Sterling since version 6.2+.

Can you add proper support of those key to cover the 3 common ssh key we can encounter ? This would improve the overall compatibility of ssh/sftp clients and server.

What is your industry? Insurance
How will this idea be used?

This is used to secure sftp connections for both client and server and limit the use of big (3000bit+) RSA keys with our many partners and maintain existing connections.
