RPM/deb should Configure OpenSSH to use rundeck.id_rsa

#377

Our RPM and deb packaging runs ssh-keygen to generate a key on install, but does not configure OpenSSH to use it. This is very confusing for debugging when trying to ssh from the rundeck user to remote hosts (people have to understand or remember to use: ssh -i ~/.ssh/rundeck.id_rsa )

We should also include a ~/.ssh/config set to 600 with:

IdentityFile ~/.ssh/rundeck.id_rsa

So that running "ssh" from the rundeck user works as if you're executing from RunDeck.

What about setting the key to id_rsa instead. If the id_rsa is already present, I'll skip the generation part. This should suffice for user who want/need to provision the rundeck user ahead of time.

mark as dupe of #517 default ssh key for projects doesn't match rpm install's rundeck user ssh key
