The 'tailscale ssh' command is an optional wrapper around the system 'ssh'
command that's useful in some cases. Tailscale SSH does not require its use;
most users running the Tailscale SSH server will prefer to just use the normal
'ssh' command or their normal SSH client.
The 'tailscale ssh' wrapper adds a few things:
* It resolves the destination server name in its arugments using MagicDNS,
even if --accept-dns=false.
* It works in userspace-networking mode, by supplying a ProxyCommand to the
system 'ssh' command that connects via a pipe through tailscaled.
* It automatically checks the destination server's SSH host key against the
node's SSH host key as advertised via the Tailscale coordination server.
