ssh-ng: Set log-fd for ssh to `4` by default
That's expected by `build-remote` and makes sure that errors are
correctly forwarded to the user. For instance, let's say that the
host-key of `example.org` is unknown and
nix-build ../nixpkgs -A hello -j0 --builders 'ssh-ng://example.org'
is issued, then you get the following output:
cannot build on 'ssh-ng://example.org?&': error: failed to start SSH connection to 'example.org'
Failed to find a machine for remote build!

required (system, features): (x86_64-linux, [])
2 available machines:
[...]
The relevant information (`Host key verification failed`) ends up in the
daemon's log, but that's not very obvious considering that the daemon
isn't very chatty normally.
This can be fixed - the same way as its done for legacy-ssh - by passing
fd 4 to the SSH wrapper. Now you'd get the following error:
cannot build on 'ssh-ng://example.org': error: failed to start SSH connection to 'example.org': Host key verification failed.
Failed to find a machine for remote build!
[...]
...and now it's clear what's wrong.
Please note that this is won't end up in the derivation's log.
