I'm hitting a bug with 9p when trying to transfer large files.
In RHEL at least 9p isn't supported because it's known to have a
lot of design flaws; virtiofsd is the supported and recommended
way to share files between a host and guest.
Add a new hidden `PODMAN_MACHINE_VIRTFS` environment
variable that can be set to `virtiofs` to switch to virtiofsd.

When running with "log-level=debug" and libkrun as machine provider,
spawn a Terminal to execute "krunkit" to enable users to have full
access to the VMs console for debugging purposes.
Users obtain an interactive, text console with scrollback. It's possible
to interact with both the kernel and GRUB2. To obtain even additional
debugging information, users can add "console=hvc0" to the linux kernel
command line through GRUB2 (it may be worth considering extending the
initial configuration of the VM to add that argument by default).

In GetDefaultDevices(), make sure MachineConfig has an AppleHypervisor
instance before attempting to access it. This fixes a SIGSEGV when
running with libkrun as machine provider.

AppleHV accepts a max 36 bytes for mount tags. Instead of using the fully qualified path for the mount tag, SHA256 the path, and truncate the shasum to 36 bytes.
Also correctly escape dashes in mounted paths.

This PR adds libkrun support to podman machine. This is an experimental feature and should not be marketed yet. Before we unmark the experimental status on this function, we will need to have full CI support and a full podman point release has pased.
This work relies on the fact that vfkit and libkrun share a reasonably (if not perfectly) same API. The --log-level debug option will not show a GUI screen for boots as krun is not capable of this.
