Sebastian UnterschützandClaude Opus 5.5 a31aab4110 feat: netssh multi — several hosts side by side in tmux or zellij
netssh multi opens one pane per host in a tmux window or zellij tab.
Hosts come from names, tag:TAG (NetBox and static hosts), cluster:NAME
(NetBox virtualization clusters; devices by default, --kind vm|all),
and groups from the config (@name, nested, with cycle detection).
Every pane runs netssh HOST, so lookup, rules, and jump hosts apply.

- tmux: a new window inside tmux, else a new session that is attached;
  tiled layout, pane borders with the host and a [SYNC] marker.
- zellij: a generated grid layout; a new tab inside zellij, else a new
  session.
- --sync broadcasts typing to all panes; netssh sync toggles it in the
  current tmux window or zellij tab.
- TUI: Space marks hosts, Ctrl+A marks all, Enter opens them together.
- Configurator: multiplexer, panes per window, groups.

NetBox SearchAll gains a cluster filter (name to cluster IDs per
instance), and cache entries keep the host's cluster for completion
and an offline fallback. Panes skip the 24-hour background refresh
(checked once by multi) and get HOME/XDG paths but no NETSSH_* values,
which would expose tokens in the process list.

testenv/tests/15-multi.sh checks real tmux and zellij sessions,
including a broadcast command arriving on all three cluster nodes.
