feat(firecracker): add Linux microVM backend to replace smolmachines
Adds a Firecracker-based backend for Linux, providing mature KVM-based
microVM isolation to replace smolmachines/libkrun (issue #342, closes
the dead-end tracked in #332).

Architecture:
- Guest control over SSH (dropbear injected into the rootfs) on a
  point-to-point TAP link. `ssh -t` forwards SIGWINCH natively, so no
  resize bridge is needed.
- Networking: a one-time, root-provisioned pool of user-owned TAP
  devices (no shared bridge → no docker0/virbr0/cni0 collisions) plus a
  dedicated `table inet bot_bottle_fc` nftables table (independent of
  Docker/ufw/firewalld rules). `./cli.py firecracker setup` prints the
  host-appropriate config (NixOS module or sudo script).
- Rootfs: `docker export` → ext4 via `mke2fs -d` (rootless, no mount),
  cached by image digest; per-bottle SSH pubkey + IP passed via the
  kernel cmdline.
- Sidecar: reuses the Docker bundle, published on the slot's host TAP IP.
- Fail-closed isolation: TAP pool verified at preflight; the egress
  boundary is proven empirically post-boot (before the agent runs) by a
  canary probe — the VM must fail to reach the host directly, or launch
  is refused.

Linux hosts with Firecracker + KVM now default to this backend;
macOS stays on macos-container.

Not yet validated end-to-end on live hardware (requires the one-time
network pool). Unit tests + pyright pass.

"""Launch flow for the Firecracker backend.
Per bottle:
1. mint the egress CA, build the agent image (docker), export it to a
cached ext4 rootfs;
2. claim a free TAP pool slot (rootless flock);
3. bring up the Docker sidecar bundle, publishing egress / git-gate /
supervise on the slot's host-side TAP IP at fixed ports;
4. boot the microVM on that TAP; wait for SSH;
5. provision (CA, prompt, skills, workspace, git, supervise) over SSH.
Isolation is enforced by the operator-provisioned nft table (checked
fail-closed in preflight): a VM reaches only its sidecar (DNAT'd from
the host TAP IP) and nothing else. The agent's HTTPS_PROXY therefore
points at `http://<host_tap_ip>:9099`, its only route to the world.
