nuageinit: complete SSH support with ssh_deletekeys and disable_root
Add missing SSH cloud-config options from cloud-init spec:
- ssh_deletekeys: remove existing SSH host keys on first boot so
new ones are generated automatically by sshd(8).
Implemented as delete_ssh_host_keys() in nuage.lua using lfs.dir()
with a directory existence guard via lfs.attributes().
- disable_root: set PermitRootLogin to 'no' (or a custom value via
disable_root_opts) in /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
- disable_root_opts: optional string or array to override the
PermitRootLogin value used when disable_root is true. Only the
first array element is used.
