Description

remote/remote_controller connects to YaST installation via vncviewer on fullscreen: https://openqa.suse.de/tests/807856#step/remote_controller/36 which is sub-optimal as we can't send some control keys over this connection, e.g. 'Ctrl-Alt-Fx' - the Ctrl part is 'lost' on the way (probably grabbed by X on the system, which executed vncviewer).

We could use select_console 'sut' in remote_ssh_target_{ftp,nfs} jobs as we do for such purposes on svirt. That is: openQA worker will connect to the YaST installation on it's own.

Parallel job remote_ssh_controller is probably not needed then.

Checklist
