Changes ssh socket path in container to
`/var/host-services/ssh-auth.sock` as the path `/run` (where the ssh
socket is mounted initially) is often mounted again by init systems, and
the ssh socket is hidden.

- Closes#1439.
- May also address some cases of #1423.
- `_compressFile()` allocated a 1 MiB read buffer
per file but never freed it.
- It also treated InputStream.read() errors (-1) the
same as EOF (0), silently swallowing errors such
as TCC access denials under /Users/, which could
result in unexpected archive contents.
This changes the semantics around `ReservedVmnetNetwork` and
`AllocationOnlyVmnetNetwork` to only create ipv4/6 subnets for networks
when the values are explicitly passed in the `NetworkConfiguration`.
Previously if the values in the `NetworkConfiguration` were not present
it would attempt to source them via `DefaultsStore`.

## Motivation and Context
The change solves an issue that caused `container network create <name>`
to fail when `UserDefaults` was set to a value that is identical to the
hard coded default ("192.168.64.1/24"/"fd00::/64"). It would fail
because a network with these parameters would already exist, and thus
could not be reserved.

- Renames `env` parameter to `dynamicEnv` to differentiate these
special-case environment variables from the standard container
environment.
- Use `[String: String]` instead of `[String: String]?`.
- Default to `[:]` when an down-revision client calls bootstrap without
supplying `dynamicEnv`.
This PR fixes#357, passing `SSH_AUTH_SOCK` env variable from current
terminal to the `SandboxService` so that the container can mount the
correct ssh auth socket. For that, it introduces `env` parameters to
`bootstrap` RPC of both `ContainersService` and `SandboxService`. This
parameter is used only for passing `SSH_AUTH_SOCK` now, but can be
extended to pass more runtime env variables.
This PR is a follow up PR of #1214.

Containerization has had support for a bit, it was just never brought

## Motivation and Context
This PR consolidates duplicated list-output formatting across the CLI
into shared rendering infrastructure.
Currently, each list command has its own copy of the same
json/quiet/table branching. This PR pulls that into shared rendering
infrastructure in `ContainerCommands`:
- `ListDisplayable` protocol for table + quiet output
- `renderJSON`, `renderTable`, `renderList` as pure functions that
return strings
- `emit()` as the single stdout boundary (no-ops on empty strings to
avoid blank-line regressions)
- `JSONOptions` so all JSON encoding goes through one path, including
volume inspect's pretty + ISO 8601 case
JSON encoding remains separate from display formatting: each command
still chooses its own JSON model, while `ListDisplayable` is used only
for table and quiet output. `ImageList` remains the intentional
exception for quiet mode so it can avoid unnecessary async work.
This change also replaces inline `JSONEncoder` usage with `renderJSON`,
removes the old `Codable+JSON.swift` helper, and moves `TableOutput` and
`ListFormat` into `ContainerCommands`. It also adds unit tests for the
shared rendering helpers and expands integration coverage for image,
network, and registry list formatting.

`container stop` has an option `-t` for `Seconds to wait before killing
the containers` (see
[here](https://github.com/apple/container/blob/ce7736105747f48debb37ca1999b562b4bfae23c/Sources/ContainerCommands/Container/ContainerStop.swift#L39)).
This timeout is used to determine when the SandboxService should stop
waiting for the container to gracefully exit with `SIGTERM` (or another
provided signal) and send `SIGKILL`.
Today, we were setting the `SandboxService.stop` XPC call's timeout to
the value provided to `container stop -t` plus 1 second. This is
problematic in cases where the code flow to send SIGKILL to the
container then forcefully stop the VM does not complete within one
second of the SIGTERM timeout being hit. In those cases, we will return
that the XPC stop call failed due to hitting the timeout. In some cases
this may happen even though the container and VM have both been
successfully stopped.
This PR removes that XPC timeout for `SandboxService.stop` entirely. We
cannot reliably determine in the SandboxClient, which may be used by
third party runtime plugins to support additional container runtimes,
how long it may take for SIGKILL to kill the container and stop related
resources.

- Adds a `plain` progress output mode (`--progress plain`)
that outputs newline-separated progress lines without
ANSI escape sequences. This is useful for CI environments,
piped output, and non-TTY contexts where ANSI cursor
control is not supported. Unlike `--progress ansi`, plain
mode works even when stderr is not a TTY.
- Closes#1365
- Related: #641, #808
- Nothing uses this function, and it does not perform secure extraction.
Clients should instead use the `ArchiveReader` from the
ContainerizationArchive library.
- Closes#1268.
- The types we were using weren't very usable with Swift 6 structured
concurrency.
- Implements just the subset of records that we use.
- Use notImplemented instead of formatError for unknown record types.
- Use pure actor for LocalhostDNSHandler now that we have sendable
types.
- Use DNSName as key for table lookups in LocalhostDNSHandler and
HostTableResolver.
- Utilize dot-suffixed domain names everywhere in the lookup chain.
- Huge thanks to @manojmahapatra and @katiewasnothere for their
diligent and patient review :D
This PR adds an option in `ContainerCreateOption` to override the root
filesystem of container. When `ContainerCreateOption.rootFsOverride` is
set, container uses that as the root fs instead of the one cloned from
image snapshot.

This PR reaps already running containers with auto remove flag on
container system start.
Container API server shutdown ideally should stop every running
container, and reap the containers with auto remove flag. However, crash
or unexpected exit of API server leaves the containers running. In such
case, next system start should stop running containers (i.e., launchd
services) and reap the containers with auto remove flag.

- Closes#1252 (part of #913).
- Commands that accept `--platform` currently require it
to be passed explicitly every time. Users working
consistently with a non-native platform (e.g. `linux/amd64`
on Apple Silicon) have no way to set a default, unlike
Docker's `DOCKER_DEFAULT_PLATFORM`.
- This adds support for the `CONTAINER_DEFAULT_PLATFORM`
environment variable as a fallback when `--platform` is not
explicitly provided.
This PR fixes#1277.
`SandboxService.waiters` had a consistency issue (not exactly race).
`SandboxService.wait` XPC can be executed on arbitrary `id`, and it will
hang forever if no other handler resumes it. Without knowing this
internal, the high level entity can run into this issue, and deadlock.
This PR simplifies the mental model: **`SandboxService.waiters[id]:
ExitWaiter(continuations, exitCode)` can only be in three states: i)
non-existing, ii) existing with nil `exitCode`, and iii) existing with
concrete `exitCode`.**
**If it is non-existing, no handler has been registered to resume it
later. If existing with nil `exitCode`, It is guaranteed the registered
`continuations` will be resumed later with a concrete `exitCode`.
Finally, if already a concrete `exitCode`, a handler has been
registered, and already resumed (with that `exitCode`).**
Thus, `SandboxService.wait` should return immediately if `waiters[id]`
is non-existing or existing with a concrete `exitCode` (as no handler
will resume it later). It should only block when `waiters[id]` is
existing with nil `exitCode` as it is guaranteed to be resumed later. By
doing so, we can guarantee there is no deadlock at all.
For that this PR does followings:
1. Introduce `ExitMonitor` class to updates `continuations` and
`exitCode` all together atomically. Initially, `state` variable saved
the `exitCode`, but it cannot be tied with `continuations` as they are
protected by different primitives (i.e., lock and actor).
2. Gather `waiters` related operations into a single actor method,
guaranteeing those are performed atomically under actor
protection---i.e., we actually don't need Mutex here.
3. Ensure initialized `waiters` are released (i.e., resumed) later
(under any possible circumstances).
4. Move `process.wait` after `process.start` in `io.handleProcess` to
run `SandboxService.wait` only after the `waiters[id]` is initialized.
By doing fourth step, we can guarantee `SandboxService.wait` can meet
only one of two following `ExitMonitor` state: i) existing with nil
`exitCode`, or ii) existing with concrete `exitCode` (in case the
process exited too early). In both cases, `exitCode` is preserved and
returned.

Fix container hang when starting an invalid executable (#1277).
Ensure the `SandboxService.waiters` updated atomically, preventing a slow `wait` from registering continuation after the `SandboxService` has been stopped.
Current `ProcessIO.handleProcess` has races between `process.wait()` and
`process.start()`. In `process.wait`, `SandboxService.wait` registers
and block on a continuation so that later exit of that `LinuxContainer`
can resume it.
Even if `SandboxService.wait` checks the container state, there can be a
race so that `SandboxService.startInitProcess` fails earlier with no
continuation to resume, then `SandboxService.wait` registers the
continuation, which forever hang the thread.
Closes#1225
Add a flag to signify that we'd like to run a minimal init process that
can reap zombie processes. The actual support for this is in the
Containerization library so the plumbing here is very simple.
- This reverts commit 1942a399e3.
- This approach to getting variant into the runtime helper was fine for
proof of concept work but we need a persistent runtime config file so
that the variant is available for `container start`.
- Adds plugin variant selection to bootstrap() on the Container API
service in such a way that we can revert the change soon without
compatibility issues when we work out a more permanent approach, and
requires no persistent data migration.
- Restore lexical ordering on ManagementFlags (except `--runtime`, will
take care of that next PR).
- Add a couple plugin loader tests to improve coverage.

## Motivation and Context
As reported in [1212](https://github.com/apple/container/issues/1212),
environment variables defined in a Dockerfile (ENV) were not being
overridden when passed via -e at runtime, resulting in duplicate entries
in the container's environment.
**Root cause:** `Parser.allEnv()` simply merged image, env-file, and
user-provided environment variables without deduplication. Since
`getenv()` returns the first match, the image default took precedence
over the user override.
**Fix:** `allEnv()` now deduplicates by key, with later sources
overriding earlier ones

- Closes#1236.
- As with other resources, default to tabular output, with `--format
json` alternative.
- Also changes common workflow to collect logs even when test step times
out.
- Adds a a `--log-root` option to `swift system start`, propagating the
value as `CONTAINER_LOG_ROOT` to services for logging to files instead
of the OS log facility. This is not a "production" capability as it
neither merges nor rotates logs.
- Currently we don't collect logs on CI builds, and we don't have
permission to run the `log` command there. The PR adds `--log-root` to
the CI test phase, archives the results, and uploads the archive as an
artifact.
- Use FilePath from swift-system for the log root. Foundation URL is a
bit of a footgun for filesystem paths, so unless we identify a
showstopper, we should incrementally transition to this type everywhere
except where we really need network URLs.
- Output the hostname of the CI runner at the start of the test phase so
we can identify runner-specific issues where they exist.
- Fix formatting for log messages with multiple metadata items, and fix
unstructured messages on instances that weren't found using `grep -r
'log\.' Sources`.
- Adds command reference documentation for `--log-root`.
- Closes#1206.
- Closes#1185.
- Closes#507.
- Addresses existing log messages for #642.
- Nondeterministic CI errors are resulting from very slow launch times
for the first runtime helper, which causes ContainersService to be
locked for longer than our 20 sec timeout. Bumping the timeout to 60
seconds addresses this case for now.
- Since many log messages needed to be changed to troubleshoot the
issue, updated all log messages to use structured logging, and
implemented consistent entry/exit logging for all service operations.
- Added logging for ContainerService lock acquisition to help with
finding root cause for the slow service startup.
- Plumbed the `--debug` flag on both `container system start` and
`container system logs` so that the flag is actually useful.
- Updated the `install-init.sh` script so that can install in a custom
app root directory.

Today it's possible to pass a memory amount that very easily will cause
the container's VM to not be able to boot. We should protect against
this to avoid weird hangs/error messages. I could be convinced that a
limit should be in Containerization as well, but I think having one in
the daemon is a decent idea regardless.

This is not intended to be used to support `--filter` or similar on the
CLIs list yet, it's solely to clean up our rather awkward use of
`ContainerClient.list()` today in the CLI. The list RPC simply returns
all of the containers we have created. Because of this, for a LOT of our
commands we filter to what we need client side, which feels like a
waste.. This change introduces a filter struct that we can provide an
array of container IDs, labels, and the status of the containers to
filter the `list()` output from.
This additionally, because it was killing (pun not intended) me and I
was already having to change this area for the `list()` additions,
changes container kill slightly to return an error if you try and kill a
container that doesn't exist.
`make test` occasionally fails with:

- Implemented the TODO at
ContainerAPIService/Client/Utility.swift:358 — warn the
user when a named volume is auto-created.
- This only triggers for named volumes (not anonymous
ones), matching Docker's behavior of informing users
about implicit resource creation.

- Closes#1150.
- The problem seems to be that the selinux label attribute enforcement
doesn't play well with overlayfs.
- Solution is to set the `lsm` boot line argument. The new value
corresponds to what one would see in a Lima VM with Colima. The Kata
kernel we use doesn't provide any of those modules, so now if you run
`dmesg | grep -i lsm` in a container you will just see: `LSM:
initializing lsm=capability`
