Research direction

The issue names SSH.NET's CreateCommand entry point and the command string "dmesg | grep -i usb". Start by reproducing this through CreateCommand and compare it with the PuTTY session; inspect how SSH.NET executes commands versus an interactive shell. Done means the pipe behavior is explained and the issue's required fix or documentation is identified.
