Workspace entries in SSH client config file inserted in incorrect location WITHIN an existing SSH host entry

[zombiemaker]

What happened?
When creating a new DevPod workspace (using Kubernetes provider), a new record is added to the $HOME/.ssh/config file for the workspace connection. However, the new record is inserted in the middle of the first pre-existing SSH config record. This breaks the configuration of the pre-existing record. Example:

PRE-CHANGE STATE

Match Host a-sshd-hostname User ssh-username
  Hostname a-sshd-hostname
  User ssh-username
  ....

POST-CHANGE STATE

Match Host a-sshd-hostname User ssh-username
# DevPod Start test-8.devpod
Host test-8.devpod
  ForwardAgent yes
  LogLevel error
  StrictHostKeyChecking no
  UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null
  HostKeyAlgorithms rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-rsa
  ProxyCommand "C:\Program Files\DevPod\devpod-cli.exe" ssh --stdio --context default --user root test-8
  User root
# DevPod End test-8.devpod
  Hostname a-sshd-hostname
  User ssh-username
  ....

What did you expect to happen instead?
Insert the new SSH connection configuration record either before or after all existing entries:

# DevPod Start test-8.devpod
Host test-8.devpod
  ForwardAgent yes
  LogLevel error
  StrictHostKeyChecking no
  UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null
  HostKeyAlgorithms rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-rsa
  ProxyCommand "C:\Program Files\DevPod\devpod-cli.exe" ssh --stdio --context default --user root test-8
  User root
# DevPod End test-8.devpod
Match Host a-sshd-hostname User ssh-username
  Hostname a-sshd-hostname
  User ssh-username
  ....

OR

Match Host a-sshd-hostname User ssh-username
  Hostname a-sshd-hostname
  User ssh-username
  ....
# DevPod Start test-8.devpod
Host test-8.devpod
  ForwardAgent yes
  LogLevel error
  StrictHostKeyChecking no
  UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null
  HostKeyAlgorithms rsa-sha2-256,rsa-sha2-512,ssh-rsa
  ProxyCommand "C:\Program Files\DevPod\devpod-cli.exe" ssh --stdio --context default --user root test-8
  User root
# DevPod End test-8.devpod

How can we reproduce the bug? (as minimally and precisely as possible)

My devcontainer.json:

// For format details, see https://aka.ms/devcontainer.json. For config options, see the
// README at: https://github.com/devcontainers/templates/tree/main/src/rust
{
	"name": "Rust",
	// Or use a Dockerfile or Docker Compose file. More info: https://containers.dev/guide/dockerfile
	"image": "mcr.microsoft.com/devcontainers/rust:1-1-bullseye",

	// Features to add to the dev container. More info: https://containers.dev/features.
	// "features": {},

	// Configure tool-specific properties.
	"customizations": {
		// Configure properties specific to VS Code.
		"vscode": {
			"settings": {},
			"extensions": [
				"streetsidesoftware.code-spell-checker"
			]
		}
	}

	// Use 'forwardPorts' to make a list of ports inside the container available locally.
	// "forwardPorts": [],

	// Use 'postCreateCommand' to run commands after the container is created.
	// "postCreateCommand": "rustc --version",

	// Uncomment to connect as root instead. More info: https://aka.ms/dev-containers-non-root.
	// "remoteUser": "root"
}

Local Environment:

• DevPod Version: v0.6.11
• Operating System: windows
• ARCH of the OS: AMD64

DevPod Provider:

• Kubernetes Provider: Client Version = v1.32.1; Kustomize Version = v5.5.0; Server Version: v1.32.1

Anything else we need to know?
