This allows users to set the associated machine's system connection to the system default when running `podman machine init --now` or `podman machine start`. It also changes the default bbehavior of these commands in that the user will be prompted and asked if they would like to switch the system connection. It also introduces a command line switch called `--update-connection`. If the switch is unset, then the user will be prmpted. If the command value is explicitly set to `false`, the user will not be prompted and the system connection will not be altered. If the value is set to `true`, the system connection will be made the default and the user will not be prompted.

Add the ability for users to override the default provider when creating mahcines. The new flag is `--provider` and allows you to specifiy a valid vmtype for the platform. This PR also removes the previous list test where we tested listing all providers. I added a PR for testing --provider which includes a standard `machine ls` which defaults now to showing all providers.

This patch adds a new --tls-verify flag to the `podman machine init`
sub command which matches many of our other commands. This allows the
user to optionally control whether TLS verification is enabled or
disabled for download of the machine image.
The default remains to leave the TLS verification decision to the
backend library which defaults to enabling it, this patch just
allows the user to explicitly set it on the CLI.

Add `--swap` argument to `podman machine init` command.
Passing an int64 value to this flag will trigger the Podman machine
ignition file to be generated with a zram-generator.conf file containing
the --swap value as the zram-size argument.
This file is read by the zram-generator systemd service on boot
resulting in a zram swap device being created.

When certain directories, like /tmp, get mounted over, FCOS/Linux can
act in unexpected ways. Added a sanity check for a list of directories
think might be impacted by this. Also, moved the volume parsing earlier
in the init process so we can catch problems before the expensive
decompression of machine images.
The following destinations are forbidden for volumes:
`/bin`, `/boot`, `/dev`, `/etc`, `/home`, `/proc`, `/root`, `/run`, `/sbin`, `/sys`, `/tmp`, `/usr`, and `/var`. Subdirectories

In coreos /mnt is a symlink to /vat/mnt and systemd does not like do use
the symlink for some reason. Simply fix the example to use /Users which
now works as we always create the directories even on /.

The driver is now hardcoded again, and there can only be

For podman machine init, deprecate the --image-path option for --image.
--image now accepts the correct image from containers.conf
Also, add the ability to specify an OCI image from the --image flag using the docker:// transport.

QEMU usb-host driver which is the one for passthrough, supports two
options for selecting an USB devices in the host to provide it to the
VM:
- Bus and Device number the device is plugged
- Vendor and Product information of the USB devices
https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/system/devices/usb.html
This commit allows a user to configure podman machine with either of
options, with new --usb command line option for podman machine init.
Examples
podman machine init tosovm4 --usb vendor=13d3,product=5406
podman machine init tosovm3 --usb bus=1,devnum=4 --usb bus=1,devnum=3
This commit also allows a user to change the USBs configured with
--usb command line option for podman machine set.
Note that this commit does not handle host device permissions nor
verify that the USB devices exists.

As explained in #21022, there are all kinds of downsides to a machine
updating itself (via zincati) automatically, like interuption of
service, lost mounts, etc.
disabling zincati will at least allow stop these downsides. we are
likely to contemplate if podman will take over the update process
externally where interuption of services will not occur etc.

Only use the word "please" in these situations:
- reader is asked to do something inconvenient
- reader is asked for permission
- reader is asked for forgiveness
Remove other uses of the word "please" to
make the language more efficient.
