fly ssh console fails with `Error host unavailable: host was not found in DNS`

Neat! Fly’s internal DNS has been going through quite a few road bumps, of late.

Btw, I almost sent a pull-request for flyctl to let its users ssh into a vm using private ip and as fate would have it, this is already supported (code).

For future:

$ flyctl ips private
  ID       | REGION | IP                                
-----------*--------*-----------------------------------
  ddddeeee | aws    | fdaa:0:aaaa:bbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:2  

$ flyctl ssh console "[fdaa:0:aaaa:bbb:cccc:dddd:eeee:2]"
