Pre-seed SSH host keys so sops-nix secrets decrypt on first boot
sops-nix (in the nixos flake) derives each host's age decryption key from its own /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key at activation time, which runs before systemd would otherwise generate that key on first boot (sshd-keygen is a plain systemd service gated behind multi-user.target; activation scripts run earlier). Without pre-seeding, secrets -- including the login password -- fail to decrypt on a fresh install's very first boot. - scripts/prepare-host-key.sh: run on the admin workstation before an install, generates the host's ed25519 keypair and prints the exact steps to register its derived age key in nixos/.sops.yaml and re-encrypt the affected secrets/*.yaml files. - common.nix's auto-install.sh: after disko mounts /mnt and before nixos-install, installs a pre-seeded key from /root/host-keys/ into /mnt/etc/ssh/ if present, otherwise warns and asks for confirmation before continuing without one. - installer.nix now imports common.nix (previously only proxmox-lxc.nix did), so the ISO/netboot path used for EFI VM installs gets the same auto-install.sh and pre-seed check, not just the LXC path. - Also fixes a pre-existing stray backtick in the disko invocation that broke auto-install.sh's bash syntax entirely, independent of this change (found while rendering the script to verify the new logic). README.md documents the new pre-flight workflow. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
