VMFile.kdl defines the omnios-builder VM with cloud-init, SSH config,
and a 3-stage provision pipeline (bootstrap packages + Rust, upload
forger source tarball, build and install forger). Makefile provides
convenience targets wrapping vmctl commands. pack-forger.sh creates a
minimal tarball of just the forger + spec-parser crates and image specs
from refraction-forger for upload to the VM.

Unified VM management consolidating QEMU-KVM (Linux) and Propolis/bhyve
(illumos) backends behind an async Hypervisor trait, with a vmctl CLI for
direct use and a library API for orchestrators.
- Core library: types, async Hypervisor trait, miette diagnostic errors
- QEMU backend: direct process management, raw QMP client, QCOW2 overlays
- Propolis backend: zone-based VMM with REST API control
- Shared infra: cloud-init NoCloud ISO generation, image download/cache,
SSH helpers with retry
- vmctl CLI: create, start, stop, destroy, list, status, console, ssh,
suspend, resume, image pull/list/inspect
- nebula-vm zone brand: lifecycle scripts and platform/config XML for
illumos zone integration
