It turns out that it is somewhat confusing to the users that we remove the
upstream server fingerprints from the source code. I can imagine this is a
security consideration, but we should at least mention in the pkg-message that
in order to bring them back in a user may run the following:

cat > ~/.tmate.conf <<\EOF
set -g tmate-server-rsa-fingerprint  
"SHA256:Hthk2T/M/Ivqfk1YYUn5ijC2Att3+UPzD7Rn72P5VWs"
set -g tmate-server-ecdsa-fingerprint
"SHA256:8GmKHYHEJ6n0TEdciHeEGkKOigQfCFuBULdt6vZIhDc"
EOF
