Add explicit base__ssh_authorised_keys: [] default to prevent
undefined-var errors in Molecule. Extend verify.yml with sshd
drop-in validation, PasswordAuthentication check, and fail2ban
jail assertion. Pre-create /run/sshd in ssh.yml so sshd -t
works in containers before the service has ever started.
