In order to allow future improvements, Crashdump Viewer now checks the version tag of the crashdump to see that it is a known format. If the crashdump version is newer than Crashdump Viewer is prepared to read, then an information dialog is displayed before Crashdump Viewer terminates.

If an incomplete process heap is discovered in a crashdump, Crashdump Viewer will now display a warning for this, similar to the warning displayed when a crashdump is truncated. Incomplete heaps can occur if for instance the literals are not included, which is the case for all dumps prior to OTP-20.2.

The host and user public key handling is hardened so that a faulty plugin can't deliver a key of wrong type.

Better checks in the server of the available hostkey's types at start and at each accept.

Better checks in the client of the available user public key types at connect.
