Details:

In the FAQ page on SshAccess, there is a 'grep vcs.sv.gnu.org', but then the
sole output line contians only "cvs", not any "vcs".

Also, you may want to include '-Emd5' in that and other 'ssh-keygen -l'
commands, because more modern sshs will show unreadable SHA256 fingerprints by
default.

Maybe also change the examples over to use 'git.sv.gnu.org' instead, as that
is what most people will be using.

Oh, and as sr #108870 implies, the command 'ssh vcs.savannah.gnu.org' assumes
that the username on Savannah and the originating machine are the same, so it
would be better to include "username@".
