Doesn't the presence of "rsa-sha2-256" do this?  The client proposes it, and
if the server supports it, they indicate via the algorithm string.  It's
pretty much independent of draft-ssh-ext-info-00 (I know it specifies
"server-sig-algs", but it seems that specifying "rsa-sha2-256" was already
sufficient to indicate this).
