🗣 Description

This pull request modifies the packer configuration to use an ED25519 temporary key pair instead of the default RSA key pair.

Please note that #98 must be merged before this pull request. This branch must also be rebased after merging #98.

💭 Motivation and context

Linux distributions are starting to disallow the use of RSA keys by default, so it makes sense to use an ED25519 key instead.

🧪 Testing

All automated tests pass.

✅ Pre-approval checklist

  • This PR has an informative and human-readable title.
  • Changes are limited to a single goal - eschew scope creep!
  • All relevant type-of-change labels have been added.
  • I have read the CONTRIBUTING document.
  • These code changes follow cisagov code standards.
  • All relevant repo and/or project documentation has been updated to reflect the changes in this PR.
  • All new and existing tests pass.

Many Linux distributions are now disallowing the use of RSA keys by
default, so it makes sense to use an ED25519 key instead.
