ssh: drop usk_public_key_idx again

Essentially a backout of d2a97f73fa1f and the
4851d15bc437_db_migration_step_after_95c01895c006_ alembic step.

We can't reliably have full index on fields with unbounded length. The
upgrade step has been reported to fail on MySQL [1]:

sqlalchemy.exc.OperationalError: (_mysql_exceptions.OperationalError)
(1170, "BLOB/TEXT column 'public_key' used in key specification without
a key length") [SQL: u'CREATE INDEX usk_public_key_idx ON user_ssh_keys
(public_key)'] (Background on this error at: http://sqlalche.me/e/e3q8)

And we really don't need this index ... especially now when we use
fingerprints for key deletion instead of looking up by the full public key.

.. _backup:

====================
Backing up Kallithea
====================


Settings
--------

Just copy your .ini file, it contains all Kallithea settings.


Whoosh index
------------

The Whoosh index is located in the ``data/index`` directory where you installed
Kallithea, i.e., the same place where the ini file is located


Database
--------

When using sqlite just copy kallithea.db.
Any other database engine requires a manual backup operation.

A database backup will contain all gathered statistics.
