Gateway SSH host identity changes on every restart #369

Description

@minhtule

Problem

The gateway's SSH host identity is generated in memory at startup, so it changes on every restart and clients receive host-key mismatch warnings. Two sources:

  • It falls back to presenting a raw ephemeral host key.
  • By default it signs the host certificate with an auto-generated CA that is also created in memory.

Desired behavior

The gateway presents a stable SSH host identity across restarts, anchored to a persistent CA:

  • Present only the CA-signed host certificate; drop the raw host-key fallback.
  • Require an explicitly provisioned CA (manual or Vault); remove the auto-generated CA.
