Originally assigned to: @manikanta9176 on GitHub.

Add a new field preferConnectionType to specify the preferred connection method: either ssh or tailscale.
This field indicates preference, not exclusivity. Based on the selected preferConnectionType:
- If tailscale is selected:
  - All Tailscale-related fields must be required.
  - SSH fields may still be filled, but are not required.
- If ssh is selected:
  - All SSH-related fields must be required.
  - Tailscale fields may still be filled, but are not required.
Implement this conditional validation in both:
- Frontend (e.g., using form schema validation with Zod or Yup)
- Backend (e.g., using Payload CMS hooks like beforeValidate or beforeChange)

Note on Field Requirements:

For SSH-related fields: All fields are required except for hostname.
For Tailscale-related fields:
- The following fields are required initially: name, description, hostname, and username.
- Additional fields like publicIp and other connection details may be populated after the machine is successfully connected to Tailscale.
