Reboot - Fix errors when using Paramiko connection (#49002)

Different connection plugins return different data when throwing exceptions. The Paramiko connection plugin does not return a text sting, which caused an exception.

The ssh connection plugin returns multi-line errors, which makes the debug logs harder to read. Only return the last line in that case in order to make the logs more readable.

When experiencing a connection failure, reset the connection.

Add reset() to paramiko_ssh

Indicate thet conection state is False when running close(). This is needed by the ensure_connected() decorator to work properly.
