// requirePrivilegedForDangerousSSH enforces M-SSHGATE: enabling SSH root login
// or disabling SSH authentication turns the root/LocalSystem daemon's SSH server
// into an unauthenticated root shell (local-to-remote-root escalation), so only
// a privileged caller (Unix root, or Windows elevated-admin/LocalSystem) may set
// these flags to true over the local IPC.
//
// It gates the request fields, not the resulting config: a value already
// persisted (e.g. set previously by root, or by MDM/managed config) is untouched;
// only a new attempt to turn them on via SetConfig/Login is checked.
//
// When the caller identity cannot be verified (e.g. the daemon is on a TCP
// control channel with no peer credentials) it fails closed — refusing rather
// than letting an unauthenticated local caller flip these flags.
