/**
 * Integration tests against a real OpenSSH server, not a mock and not ssh2's
 * own server implementation. The trust-on-first-use state machine is the most
 * security-sensitive logic in the app, and testing it against itself would
 * prove only that it is self-consistent.
 *
 * Start the server first:
 *
 *   mkdir -p /tmp/testsshd && ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f /tmp/testsshd/host_key -N '' -q
 *   ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f /tmp/testsshd/user_key -N '' -q
 *   cp /tmp/testsshd/user_key.pub /tmp/testsshd/authorized_keys
 *   printf 'Port 2222\nListenAddress 127.0.0.1\nHostKey /tmp/testsshd/host_key\n' \
 *     'AuthorizedKeysFile /tmp/testsshd/authorized_keys\nUsePAM no\nStrictModes no\n' \
 *     > /tmp/testsshd/sshd_config
 *   sshd -f /tmp/testsshd/sshd_config -D -e &
 *
 * The suite skips when that server is absent rather than failing, so the unit
 * tests stay runnable anywhere.
