PAM Update: Added record type Unix Host with Private Key and visual feedback window about system import process

This update adds record type Unix Host with Private Key and visual feedback window about the system import process.

Added record type Unix Host with Private Key

The new update adds record type Unix Host with Private Key to connect to corresponding accounts to complement existing Unix Host with Key record type with the same functionality but a different visual experience.

The new record type names the private key field a Private Key instead of the existing record type name Cert.

In addition to this, the new record type allows pasting the private key into the text field on the screen instead of attaching it as a file. The new Private Key field could be unlocked as usual to copy and paste the key right from the screen.

Regular connect, check status, key rotation and other job execution operations are available for the new record type in the same fashion as for the old one.

The new Unix Host with Private Key record type allows extension with the Password field to specify a password for the private key on record.

Added visual feedback window about the system import process

The update introduces visual feedback about the system import process to indicate the progress of the import as well as to demonstrate the validity of the current master password to read encrypted imported data.

System import is useful to recover the broken system from the previously saved export data, to migrate to a different back-end database or to replicate system data to a remote location.
