    cc_ssh.py: fix private key group owner and permissions (#1070)

    When default host keys are created by sshd-keygen (/etc/ssh/ssh_host_*_key)
    in RHEL/CentOS/Fedora, openssh it performs the following:

    # create new keys
    if ! $KEYGEN -q -t $KEYTYPE -f $KEY -C '' -N '' >&/dev/null; then
            exit 1
    fi

    # sanitize permissions
    /usr/bin/chgrp ssh_keys $KEY
    /usr/bin/chmod 640 $KEY
    /usr/bin/chmod 644 $KEY.pub
    Note that the group ssh_keys exists only in RHEL/CentOS/Fedora.

    Now that we disable sshd-keygen to allow only cloud-init to create
    them, we miss the "sanitize permissions" part, where we set the group
    owner as ssh_keys and the private key mode to 640.

    According to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2013644#c8, failing
    to set group ownership and permissions like openssh does makes the RHEL openscap
    tool generate an error.
