forgejo-backport-action 97a27bb096 [v12.0/forgejo] fix: make ssh key verification command more robust (#8860)
**Backport:** https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/pulls/8821

This is a follow-up to a13414341b.

There are two situations where the previous verification command could
fail:

* The user has an SSH key in a normal file, but no running SSH agent.

* The user uses a special SSH agent, but it's not specified via the
  SSH_AUTH_SOCK variable.

To fix that, we provide two separate commands to copy-paste. One
for file-based keys and one for agent-based keys. People using
file-based keys with a path other than the standard `~/.ssh/id_ed25519`
should notice themselves what to change. People using an SSH agent
get a little hint to make sure the SSH_AUTH_SOCK variable is set.

* run the command matching your setup (file-based SSH key or agent-provided one), copy paste the output and submit it

* check that the verification is successful
