Provider fails when no private_key provided

[david-jointech]

Terraform Version

1.6.6

Affected Resource(s)

• data.ssh_tunnel

Expected Behavior

Using the provider without defining a private_key in auth should have the provider working as expected.

Actual Behavior

The provider fails during plan with a runtime error (nil pointer).

Steps to Reproduce

1. Add provider configuring only password in the auth-block
2. Add a data.ssh_tunnel-resource configuring a connection to the ssh-server
3. Run terraform plan (or terraform apply).

Panic Output

Stack trace from the terraform-provider-ssh_v0.2.3 plugin:

panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
