fix: Added default port ssh port 22 and forwarding of config port setting

[Josh-Walker-GM]

Related to #6426.

I have added in the default port option to the default server config DEFAULT_SERVER_CONFIG and have ensured the configured port setting is passed through to the node-ssh connection.

This is my first open-source contribution so thanks for your patience with me.

Release Notes

When doing a Baremetal deploy, you can now specify a port other than 22 to connect to via SSH. In your deploy.toml file just add the port key:

  [[production.servers]]
  host = "server.com"
+ port = 22022
  username = "user"
  agentForward = true
  sides = ["api","web"]
  path = "/var/www/app"
  processNames = ["serve"]
  repo = "git@github.com:myorg/myapp.git"

Might be useful to mention @cannikin here, who helped me on the forum and created the issue.

Hey @Josh-Walker-GM Congrats on your first open source contribution!!

If you could update the docs as well that’d be great. You can find that doc here: https://github.com/redwoodjs/redwood/blob/main/docs/docs/deploy/baremetal.md If you want to test out your changes you can run yarn start from the /docs dir and then when the site comes up, change the drop-down at top left to be “Canary”.

Thanks @cannikin, not a major contribution but happy to help.

I've added the required documentation.

I notice the only other node-ssh config option which is not handled here is the tryKeyboard - which I believe simply requests the credentials interactively when enabled? Is this something which has been consciously omitted?

Wellllll I don't think our CLI interface easily handles interactive keyboard...none of our existing CLI commands do it so we've never really tried. We have a couple that use prompt to ask for a single letter and then do something after, but never had to accept input and then forward it on to something else. You're welcome to try to add it if you'd like! But we could keep this PR focused on just the port and start a new one for that option if you think you want to add it!

Okay I might have a quick look and see if it turns into a big can of worms or not but I agree best to keep the PR as focused as possible.

I believe I'll need to update some of the tests. I noticed one failed earlier as it does not like having the additional port option present.

Sorry for the radio silence! More meetings and travel today, but I’ll be back at home tomorrow and can review.

Thanks again for the quick turnaround on this one, and congrats on your first open source PR! 🎉

My pleasure, was an interesting experience. I hope to perhaps contribute more even if I am a little new to a project like this.
