Some acceptance tests require generating a temporary SSH key pair for ensuring they are sent to AWS and that we can connect through SSH to an instance with a user-provided key.
This was implemented through ssh-keygen', part of the openssh suite of tools, but because the behaviour may change between environments, we opted to rewrite the keygen steps in pure go, by relying on the functions exposed by thecrypto' standard library.
