oeqa/target/ssh: Replace suggogatepass with ignoring errors

We continued to see encoding problems with ssh commands run in oeqa. After much
research the conclusion was we should use ignore the errors since some occasional bad
locale encoding is better than the unicode decoding issues we were seeing which crashed
large parts of tests.
