Closes #18

Adds a guide under Programming Tips & Tricks covering VSCode Remote-SSH onto a
Cannon compute node, as an alternative to the Open OnDemand web view.

The core of it is the ProxyJump block in ~/.ssh/config, which is what makes
compute nodes reachable at all. The page also explains each salloc flag, since
these tend to get copied between people without much understanding, and is
explicit about the main downside: the connection dies when the allocation ends.

Usernames are placeholders, since this repo is public.

Not render-checked; I do not have quarto installed locally.

A thing I noticed but left alone: 02_guides/01_hpc-infrastructure.qmd has a "VSCode Remote SSH" panel stub with placeholder text. A link to this new page would fit there.

Adds 02_guides/vscode-remote-ssh.qmd and links it from the
Programming Tips & Tricks section on guides.qmd.

Fixes #18
