The default TAP-pool base was 100.64.0.0/10 (RFC-6598 CGNAT) — chosen to
dodge RFC-1918, but that's exactly the range Tailscale assigns node
addresses from, so on a Tailscale host it's the worst pick. Move the
default to 10.243.0.0/16, an obscure RFC-1918 block that steers clear of
docker/libvirt/k8s/LAN and Tailscale.
No default is collision-proof, so add netpool.overlapping_routes(): it
parses `ip -json route show table all` and flags any route intersecting
the pool range (excluding our own bbfc* TAPs and the default route). The
launch preflight warns on overlap; `backend status` reports it.
Distribute the NixOS host setup as a flake module instead of a
copy-pasted blob: nix/firecracker-netpool.nix computes the taps / nft
table from typed options (poolSize, ipBase, ifacePrefix, owner) with a
/31-alignment assertion, and flake.nix exposes it as
nixosModules.firecracker-netpool. Defaults mirror the backend constants;
writeEnvFile emits the matching BOT_BOTTLE_FC_* so the host pool and the
launcher can't drift.
