This adds support for `--device rosetta,mountTag=something` on the commandline. This is only available on system with Apple CPUs, vfkit will error out if this option is used on Intel CPUs. Once the VM is running and the rosetta share is mounted, rosetta support can be enabled by creating this file: $ cat /etc/binfmt.d/rosetta.conf :rosetta:M::\x7fELF\x02\x01\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x00\x3e\x00:\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xfe\xfe\x00\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xff\xfe\xff\xff\xff:/mnt/rosetta:F and then running `systemctl restart systemd-binfmt` See these links for more details: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization/running_intel_binaries_in_linux_vms_with_rosetta?language=objc https://docs.kernel.org/admin-guide/binfmt-misc.html https://www.man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/binfmt.d.5.html This fixes crc-org#23

The vfkit side should be relatively easy, quite close to the file sharing support.
The guest will need to mount the shared rosetta directory, and to configure binfmt support https://developer.apple.com/documentation/virtualization/running_intel_binaries_in_linux_vms_with_rosetta?language=objc
