This change avoids the "tcgetattr: Invalid argument" error by making sure the ssh we start does have a proper pseudo-tty.

We could also check whether our current terminal is a proper terminal (by doing a tcgetattr ourselves) but I don't think this adds anything.

This closes #1662 (if all use-cases have been tested: sudo, passwd)

Provide a proper error when the remote_port is not an integer

Allow the remote port to be templated per play

As reported on the mailinglist, the user received a ValueError when the port number was not templated (fixed in #1649) and therefore it was not an integer. This change will catch the exception and provide a proper error so it is more clear.

This was requested on the mailinglist and seems useful.
