The current implementation has a slightly awkward communication protocol including files in a shared directory. Using the approach I document here
https://muxup.com/2026q2/bootable-qemu-image-menagerie-with-rootless-debootstrap in terms of ssh key injection and Unix domain sockets, we instead just use ssh. Overall this should improve robustness and by virtue of being more conventional, maintainability.

The builders will be taken down temporarily to roll this out, as the appliance image configuration is updated.
