Description
A couple minor polish issues from interacting with the console:
- When adding an SSH key, the form path (
settings/ssh-keys-new) is pushed onto the history stack causing the navigation via back / forward to repop the "Add SSH key" form. My assumption would be that after successfully adding an SSH key, the back button would return me to the page I was on prior to the SSH keys page. A similar behavior occurs if you repeatedly open / close the "Add SSH key" form, the back / forward actions will replay each interaction - On the instance create screen "Authentication > SSH keys" is missing a tooltip message. Currently the label reads "hello"

Research direction
Start with the settings/ssh-keys-new flow and reproduce adding a key and repeatedly opening and closing the form while using back and forward navigation. Then inspect the instance create screen's Authentication > SSH keys label; done means history no longer replays form interactions and the label has a meaningful tooltip instead of "hello".
