We may need to forward a user's identity so that ConTest can log with the proper key/certs. This needs support on both sshcmd and the client side (i.e. the API). This needs a proper design session

Research direction
Start by reviewing the sshcmd implementation and the client-side API to understand how ConTest currently handles user identity, keys, and certificates. Define the forwarding design for both sides, then confirm that ConTest can log with the forwarded identity in the relevant SSH workflow.
