Description

I can't set RekeyLimit 1G 1h via ssh::client::host_config_entry, it returns an error
Could not evaluate: Failed to save Augeas tree to file. See debug logs for details.

I was able to fix this by changing both simp/pupmod-simp-ssh and voxpupuli/puppet-augeasproviders_ssh to take an array for RekeyLimit and then passing in rekeylimit: [1G, 1h].

I can submit some PRs if this is not just user error on my part and if that fix is reasonable.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure through ssh::client::host_config_entry with RekeyLimit 1G 1h, then inspect how simp/pupmod-simp-ssh and voxpupuli/puppet-augeasproviders_ssh represent and pass RekeyLimit to Augeas. Done means the setting is accepted and the Augeas tree saves successfully without requiring the reported array workaround.
