feat(provision): Phase 2 — migrate SSH host keys to clan vars

Replaces the gitignored host-keys/ directory with clan vars as the
authoritative storage for SSH host keys. Keys are now generated as
sops-binary-encrypted clan var files (admin-key only) and checked into
vars/per-machine/<target>/openssh/, eliminating the plaintext private
key that previously had to live outside the repo.

Changes:
- modules/clan/ssh-host-key.nix: clan vars generator for the ed25519
  SSH host key pair (neededFor="activation" — not mapped to sops.secrets,
  delivered via tarball baking for LXC or --pre-format-files for VMs)
- flake.nix: add clanCore module + required settings to every mkTarget;
  deduplicate bundled disko/sops-nix via follows; all 27 hosts eval clean
- flake.lock: updated to reflect the new follows constraints
- scripts/lib/clan-vars.sh: new helper library with
  clan_ssh_key_exists / clan_ssh_pubkey_path / clan_decrypt_ssh_key /
  clan_generate_ssh_key for use by the provisioning and sync scripts
- scripts/secrets/sync-host-keys.sh: queue_host_sync() now checks clan
  vars first; generates via clan_generate_ssh_key if no key exists;
  derives age fingerprint from clan pub key for .sops.yaml registration
- scripts/proxmox/create-proxmox-resource.sh: key management simplified
  (sync-host-keys.sh now generates the key if missing, so the inline
  prepare-host-key.sh call is gone); sync_remote_host_keys() decrypts
  the clan key into a temp dir and scps just the two files to the node
  when a clan key exists, falling back to the old host-keys/ scp for
  any remaining legacy entries

# Defines the SSH host key as a clan vars generator so that:
# - `clan vars generate <target>` creates and encrypts the key pair
# - The private key lives at vars/per-machine/<target>/openssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key/secret
# (sops binary-encrypted, admin-key-only; decrypted by the build script)
# - The public key lives at vars/per-machine/<target>/openssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key.pub/value
# (plaintext; used by sync-host-keys.sh to derive the sops age fingerprint)
#
# neededFor = "activation" means clan's deployment tool would upload this
# before running nixos-rebuild/nixos-install (for VM/baremetal via
# nixos-anywhere). For lxc-* hosts, the build script bakes it into the
# tarball directly via NIXOS_HOST_KEYS_DIR -- the neededFor value here
# simply ensures it is NOT mapped to sops.secrets (which would try to
# decrypt it at runtime as a regular service secret, which is wrong: the
# SSH host key reaches the container via the tarball, not sops).
