The message isn't new; every version of openssh in portage includes it
as part of the post-install.

As far as I can determine, it's just a reminder to restart ssh after
merging your config changes e.g. with conf-update or whatever you use,
so you can take advantage of whatever security bugfixes were present in
the new version.
