What does this MR do and why?

Make DB lab SSH config more generic

This config makes too many assumptions about your SSH setup and it will not work unless your setup happens to mirror that of the person who wrote it.

  1. The identity file path is different depending on your chosen algorithm and some people don't use identity files at all! (Ex: I use the 1Password agent).
  2. $USER is the default user, so we don't need this config.
  3. IdentitiesOnly just limits key discovery.

If we remove these configs, it should "just work".
