Make it possible to connect to a container via SSH about che HOT 1 OPEN

At the moment we have some issues when trying to use and configure SSH server inside a container.
I tried to use Open SSH and the alternative Dropbear.

The current state of the attempts to configure both services is in the draft pull request che-incubator/che-code#327

The main problem that I see at the moment that is user in the container is not properly configured (seems not properly configured). Open SSH require PAM to be properly configured. But all the changes made in developer container were overwritten by the kubernetes when workspace startup.

Alternative Dropear service is not very talkative and do not explain in the details the reason of failure.
It says only, that user user is wrong

Login attempt with wrong user user from 127.0.0.1:34192

Third option I have tried is to build the image based on ubuntu.

FROM ubuntu:16.04
RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y openssh-server
RUN mkdir /var/run/sshd
# Set root password for SSH access (change 'your_password' to your desired password)
RUN echo 'root:your_password' | chpasswd
RUN sed -i 's/PermitRootLogin prohibit-password/PermitRootLogin yes/' /etc/ssh/sshd_config
RUN sed 's@session\s*required\s*pam_loginuid.so@session optional pam_loginuid.so@g' -i /etc/pam.d/sshd
EXPOSE 22
CMD ["/usr/sbin/sshd", "-D"]

It is possible to test how does it work, but locally, not in the container

• Download and launch the service

docker pull quay.io/vgulyy/ssh-ubuntu:test
docker run --name ssh-ubuntu quay.io/vgulyy/ssh-ubuntu:test

• Take the IP address

sudo docker inspect --format='{{range .NetworkSettings.Networks}}{{.IPAddress}}{{end}}' ssh-ubuntu

• Connect to the service

ssh [email protected]

But it does not work if create a container with this image, because of configuration files are overwritten.
