Build Proxmox images directly on the node instead of transferring them
Check NixOS configurations / eval-hosts (pull_request) Failing after 11m39s

create-proxmox-resource.sh no longer builds locally and scp's a
multi-gigabyte image over -- it now clones/pulls this repo onto the
Proxmox node itself (bootstrapping build tooling via the existing
codex-setup.sh on first use) and runs the nix build / disko image
script there, staging the result straight into the node's own import
directory. host-keys/ (gitignored) is copied over separately since a
git pull doesn't carry it. --image still uploads an explicit local
file for the case where you don't want a build at all.
