Description
A common thing to do when working with VMs is to reboot them, it would be useful to have a reconnect option with yo ssh, to match the wait option, to be able to do something like:
yo ssh -w --reconnect myvm-1
or using shot name:
yo ssh -wr myvm-1

Research direction
Start by tracing the yo ssh command and its existing --wait option. Check how short options are defined, then determine how reconnecting should behave after a VM reboot. Done means yo ssh -w --reconnect myvm-1 and yo ssh -wr myvm-1 reconnect successfully.
