`[exception] did not receive banner.` exception

See original GitHub issue

For an sshd configuration, it is valid to have the Banner option in /etc/ssh/sshd_config set to none.

However, ssh-audit then always throws a [exception] did not receive banner..

It would be nice if ssh-audit could optionally skip checking for a banner.

Option could be added, just have to think about the naming and design, e.g., will that include two options (connection and read timeout) or a single one; how to specify them intuitively, etc. I was thinking something along the lines of -t 3:5. What do You think?

Good idea.

Note that having one option with a list of parameters can be hard parsing and harder to remember the order of the parameters, so it might be easier to support this:

[--connection-timeout|-ct] <integer> [--read-timeout|-rt] <integer>
