Description of problem:

When running a REX job via SSH from the Satellite to an RHEL8 host with tlog [1] enabled, it fails with the following error.

Actual results:

The REX fails with the following message.

~~~
   1:
Error initializing command: RuntimeError - Unable to upload file to /var/tmp/foreman-ssh-cmd-1a5fd374-5dda-4e8b-b3da-2119ca2e7b69/script on remote system: exit code: PIPE
   2:
Exit status: EXCEPTION
~~~

Expected results:

Be able to execute a REX job via ssh on an RHEL 8 host

Additional info:

I finally got around to setting up a new enough rhel with tlog enabled. Good news is the changes we did to smart_proxy_remote_execution_ssh which are going to land in Satellite 7.0 seem to fix this as well. Bad news is the changes are too large to backport so this will be a 7.0+ only thing.

Verified on Satellite 6.12 sn3, ssh job ran successfully against a host that records a tlog session and has with customizations in /etc/profile.d
