The phone's only unsaved way in was the box on the terminal screen, which is drawn only while nothing
is open, so a second machine could not be reached that way while a first one's session was up. The
search well at the top of HOSTS is always there and the design already calls it "Search or
connect...", so it now reads an address the way the desktop palette does: with an @ in it, a NOT
SAVED card above the list offers a password box and CONNECT.

It connects through VaultViewModel.ConnectToEndpointAsync, the same path as the manual box and the
desktop palette, so nothing is written to the keychain. The search box and the password are cleared
once it dials, the password goes whenever the address changes, and an address the manual parser
refuses gets its sentence under the box.

Covered by six new ShellFlowTests cases; manual check 8.20 covers the card on a device.

◆ A MACHINE THAT IS NOT SAVED. When the search box holds user@host, this card offers to connect to it
with a password, and nothing is written to the keychain — the desktop palette's typed-address row, in
this screen's shape. The terminal screen's own box does the same but is drawn only while nothing is
open; this one is here whatever is running. See VaultViewModel.FilterAddress.
Above the list rather than over it, like the panels below: the hosts that also match what was typed
stay in view, and one of them may be the same machine with a key already bound to it.
Classes="field secret" on the password for the reason the terminal screen's box gives: the class is
what keeps the password out of the software keyboard's dictionary, not only off the screen.
