Needs confirmation that this is written correctly from @eedgar (-- @punkrokk )
Paramiko has a bug that is not patched, that causes ssh proxy connected to not get closed.

eg. zombie ssh processes are left from the proxycommand

If I were to modify my st2.conf file as follows:

#/bin/bash
crudini --set /etc/st2/st2.conf ssh_runner use_ssh_config True
crudini --set /etc/st2/st2.conf ssh_runner ssh_config_file_path /root/.ssh/config
chown -R root:root /root/.ssh/*
chmod 600 /root/.ssh/config
chmod 600 /root/.ssh/id_rsa
  Host 10.1.*
    ProxyCommand ssh -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no bastion nc %h %p
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    User stanley

  Host bastion
    Hostname bastion.example.com
    IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
    User stanley

We end up with zombie ssh connections. Paramiko has a bug, but it is not patched: paramiko/paramiko#789

This PR checks for sockets that are left open and closes them.

I think I spotted a bug preventing this from being adequately run and tested, as well as a lint issue.

Check out st2actions/tests/unit/test_paramiko_ssh.py for examples of unit tests of this code.

Looking much better. Would like some TODO comments so we can come back and improve this code once we're developing for Python 3.6+ only (eg: after ST2 v3.2 is released, which should be "soon").
