Ed Santiago 5389eee737 Create a podman-troubleshooting man page
Generated at build time from troubleshooting.md. Purpose is
to ship an actual man page to end users.

Much more complicated than initial guess, because there was
a bug in my Makefile man page filtering, the sed expression
that cleans up markdown that does not translate to roff.
All I've done here is reorder some of the expressions,
stripping off https links *before* we process
podman man page links.

## NAME
podman\-machine - Manage Podman's virtual machine
## SYNOPSIS
**podman machine** *subcommand*
## DESCRIPTION
`podman machine` is a set of subcommands that manage Podman's virtual machine.
Podman on MacOS and Windows requires a virtual machine. This is because containers are Linux -
containers do not run on any other OS because containers' core functionality are
tied to the Linux kernel. Podman machine must be used to manage MacOS and Windows machines,
but can be optionally used on Linux.
All `podman machine` commands are rootless only.
NOTE: The podman-machine configuration file is managed under the
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/containers/podman/machine/` directory. Changing the `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`
environment variable while the machines are running can lead to unexpected behavior.
