Comment (by dkocher):
> ssh-keygen(1): write OpenSSH format private keys by default instead of
using OpenSSL's PEM format. The OpenSSH format,
supported in OpenSSH releases since 2014 and described in the PROTOCOL.key
file in the source distribution, offers substantially
better protection against offline password guessing and supports key
comments in private keys. If necessary, it is possible to write
old PEM-style keys by adding "-m PEM" to ssh-keygen's arguments when
generating or updating a key.
