Add default timeout to legacy ssh.ClientConfig (#15440)

* Add default timeout to legacy ssh.ClientConfig

When using the deprecated Dynamic SSH Keys method, Vault will make an
outbound SSH connection to an arbitrary remote host to place SSH keys.
We now set a timeout of 1 minute for this connection.

It is strongly recommended consumers of this SSH secrets engine feature
migrate to the more secure, and otherwise equivalent, SSH certificates
method.
