Update README.md to include the usage of `IdentitiesOnly=yes` in ssh command examples. The `IdentitiesOnly=yes` option is added to the SSH command invocations to ensure that only the specified identity file is used for authentication. This prevents SSH from attempting to use any other keys in the `~/.ssh` directory, which is particularly useful when multiple keys are present. This change addresses the issue where "user not found" and "unauthenticated" errors occur when issuing commands the Soft Serve server over SSH by ensuring the correct key is always used.
