Cloned from https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2048560

Description of problem:
When option async_ssh is true and remote_execution_ssh_user is not root, the resulting job is not executed with the effective_user on the target server

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
satellite 6.10.2

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure async_ssh to true:

1. grep async /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.d/remote_execution_ssh.yml
2. Whether to run remote execution jobs asynchronously
   :async_ssh: true
   ~~~

2. Configure remote_execution_ssh_user to a regular user and define remote_execution_effective_user_method to sudo

3. Initiate a job to run "whoami" on a target host. Check the output of the job and you'll see the regular user, instead of root.

4. Change the async_ssh back to false, and run the same job again. You'll see root on the output.

Actual results:
job is execute with the regular user.

Expected results:
job to be executed with root
