"none" method is just a means to query to determine what methods the
server supports. As a response, the server sends back a method list.
Technically speaking, you can bypass authentication entirely in SSH2
by directly going to "ssh-connection" service after kex is done. But
as far as I know, Openssh doesn't support it because of the
impracticality of this in almost all real world scenarios (I could be
wrong). I am not sure about SSH.com's server.
