nixci build --on ssh://example

This should basically,

nix copy the flake[^path] to example host
- Make sure to nix copy dependent paths as well, such as those of --override-inputs
Run nixci build on that flake, effectively, on the example host over SSH

[^path]: Path to the flake can be determined using:

    ❯ nix flake metadata --json | jq -r .path
    /nix/store/dpdavhf0wzzd36b5afv8ib1b8jhrdpc3-source

To do (2), we need to copy the nixci flake itself, and then nix run it over SSH (example).
