Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

The "connect [to workspace] via SSH" button only connects via port 22.

When using k3s on a plain VM, some vendors (eg, Hetzner/DigitalOcean/Civo) don't provide an option to change the port for SSHing into the VM. This means that they can never enable the "connect via SSH" option on their Gitpod installation.

Describe the behaviour you'd like

An option in the KOTS dashboard to configure the SSH port to a different port number. This would need changes in the Installer and server components to handle this configuration parameter.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Without the option to configure the SSH port on the machine, there are limited available options.

Additional context

In the KOTS dashboard at least, we may wish to offer a select list of available ports to avoid internal port conflicts - suggest 22 (default), 2200, 2222, and 2244. The Installer and server should just accept the value that they are given.
