fix(security/ssh): fixed the loading ssh key from gopass
Now on every home-manager switch we run a script that loads the key form gopass to gpg-agent, then the gpg-agent is responsible for storing it. Anytime gopass changes the ssh key we must run home-manager switch to load the ssh key into gpg agent.
