communicator/ssh: switch agent default to true

This changes SSH Agent utilization from opt-in to opt-out, bringing
Terraform in line with the behavior of Packer and the `ssh` command
itself.

But skip SSH agent connections if the SSH_AUTH_SOCK env var doesn't exist,
whcih means there's no agent to connect to.
