nuageinit: fix update_sshd_config crash when file does not exist
Previously update_sshd_config() would assert-fail if sshd_config did
not exist. Now it creates a new file with the given key/value.
Also replace the fragile simultaneous r+ + temp file approach with
a cleaner read-then-write pattern: read all lines into memory, modify
as needed, then write to a temp file and rename. All assert() calls
replaced with proper error handling via warnmsg().
Add test case for missing file creation.
