Description
I have a builder that is setup with SSH, and when building projects with larger contexts I see the following:
#10 [internal] load build context
#10 sha256:1b6ab60be38a09b7ca89d54bee19f0b64482887ff6b887eef34c84ab89671f0d
#10 transferring context: 29.14MB 3.4s
#10 transferring context: 73.51MB 8.5s
#10 transferring context: 73.89MB 15.3s
#10 transferring context: 74.21MB 17.4s done
#10 ERROR: rpc error: code = Canceled desc = grpc: the client connection is closing
------
> [internal] load build context:
------
error: failed to solve: rpc error: code = Unknown desc = rpc error: code = Canceled desc = grpc: the client connection is closing
Version of buildx is 0.5.1.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reproducing a large-context build through an SSH builder using buildx 0.5.1, then investigate where the gRPC client connection closes during context transfer. Done means the same build completes successfully without the reported cancellation error.
