sshpeer: document the handshake mechanism

The mechanism by which SSH peers establish connections with remotes
is wonky and requires a bit of code archeology to understand. While
it is already documented in `hg help internals.wireproto`, it helps
to have documentation in the code as well.

# Rules for how modules can be loaded. Values are:
#
#    c - require C extensions
#    allow - allow pure Python implementation when C loading fails
#    cffi - required cffi versions (implemented within pure module)
#    cffi-allow - allow pure Python implementation if cffi version is missing
#    py - only load pure Python modules
#
# By default, fall back to the pure modules so the in-place build can
# run without recompiling the C extensions. This will be overridden by
# __modulepolicy__ generated by setup.py.
