supermachine 0.7.82

Run any OCI/Docker image as a hardware-isolated microVM on macOS HVF (Linux KVM and Windows WHP in progress). Single library API, zero flags for the common case, sub-100 ms cold-restore from snapshot.

//! Validate KVM data volumes: attach a host-backed virtio-blk, mount it in the
//! guest, write data, then re-start a fresh VM with the SAME volume and confirm
//! the data persisted (the backing file survives VM teardown).
//!
//! Usage: kvm_volume [backing_file]   (default /tmp/sm-vol.img)
