- Closes#346.
- This PR enables connecting host's localhost ports from
containers.
- It adds an option `--localhost <localhost>` to DNS
create command, after which the packets heading
ip address in container are redirected to localhost in
host machine. Packet filter rule is added and deleted
along with the creation and deletion of localhost domain.
- Closes#1005.
- Adapt everything to use MACAddress type from containerization 0.20.0.
- Allocate MAC addresses for every container so that we have
deterministic IPv6 link local addresses.
- Add AAAA handling to ContainerDNSHandler.
- NOTE: Only works on Tahoe. On Sequoia, we don't have a good way to set
or determine the IPv6 network prefix when networks are created, so we
can't infer the IPv6 link local addresses for AAAA responses and we
instead return `NODATA`.
- Corrects the MAC address example command in the
how-to guide to use the correct `--network` flag syntax
instead of the incorrect `--mac-address` flag.
- Part of work for #460.
- Enable set/get of IPv6 network prefix in ReservedVmnetNetwork.
- Show IPv6 prefix in `network list` full output.
- Option for setting IPv6 prefix when creating a network.
- System property for default IPv6 prefix.

This implements statistics gathering across the various components, but
ultimately this is for implementing a new CLI command: `container
stats`. This shows memory usage, cpu usage, network and block i/o and
the number of processes in the container. The new command can inspect
stats for 1-N containers and by default continuously updates in a `top`
like stream.

- Closes#752.
- Currently, there is no way to specify a custom MAC address for a
container's network interface and the MAC address is auto-generated by
the system.
- Use Cases
- **Network Testing**: Developers testing network-dependent applications
that need predictable MAC addresses
- **License Management**: Running containerized software with MAC-based
license keys
- **Network Automation**: Scripts and tools that expect specific MAC
addresses for configuration
- **Debugging**: Consistent MAC addresses across container restarts for
easier troubleshooting
Common subcommands for all defaults.
- Closes#384.
- Replaces `registry default` and `system dns default` subcommands with
`system property`.
- Users can use `system property ls` to see details about each supported
default value.
- `system property set` implements reasonable validation for all
properties.
- NOTE: Probing of the registry for `registry default set` was removed,
which means users will find out about a botched setting when pulling or
pushing.
- Updates docs.

See discussion below for example. For multiple network interfaces in a
single container we'll want to integrate against a containerization that
includes apple/containerization#156.
The change bumps the containerization dependency to 0.2.0 and addresses
the breaking API changes.

- Switched to use bookworm Python image as `curl` is not in slim.
- Use `pre` tags for console blocks. We lose syntax highlighting, but
get rid of the copy button.
- Fix `dockerfile` tag in tutorial.
- Fix GitHub typo in README.
