Same as the match group in sshd_config

That way I can assign the users to a special group which uses certificates only
In the sshd_config I then can use the match group to deny
kbinteractive and set the AuthorizedKeysFile to null with one line.

Otherwise I will keep on changing the sshd_config and need to add new
certificates in the TrustedUserCAKeys file on all the systems for new
people.
I want to do as less changes to the sshd configuration
