Mathieu Benoit 3e53cbd47d [IMP] deploy: probe the remote port before opening the tunnel
A stopped service on the far side showed up only as a wall of « channel N:
open failed: connect failed: Connection refused », one line per browser
request, saying nothing about WHICH end refused. The tunnel itself was fine;
there was simply nothing to reach. Diagnosing it took three commands.

The port is now probed first, and the answer is plain:

  ⚠ Rien n'écoute sur le port 8069 de test-vm_02+erplibre-ubuntu-2404
    Démarrer le service là-bas, ou continuer quand même.
  Continuer quand même ? (o/N)

The probe opens a real TCP connection to « localhost:<port> » from the remote
host rather than reading its listening table. That is exactly what the tunnel
will do — same host resolution, same IPv4/IPv6 choice — so it cannot say open
where the tunnel would fail. It also needs no ss or netstat, which minimal
images lack.

Three outcomes, three behaviours: listening goes straight through, closed
warns and asks (default no), and an inconclusive probe — unreachable host, no
bash — says so and continues rather than blocking on its own uncertainty.

Verified against the real VM: port 22 open, port 9999 closed, an unknown host
inconclusive, and port 8069 correctly reported closed after the Odoo service
had been stopped — the very case that prompted this. Then at flow level:
refusing aborts without opening anything, forcing opens the tunnel anyway, and
an inconclusive probe still opens it.
