Philippe Martin 857af42a16 feat(vm): support corporate HTTP forward proxy egress for microVM sandboxes (#3090)
* feat(vm): support corporate HTTP forward proxy egress for microVM sandboxes

The corporate forward proxy machinery from #1792 is driver-agnostic and
already merged: openshell-supervisor-network implements CONNECT chaining,
NO_PROXY matching, credentials, https:// proxies and corporate CA trust, and
openshell-sandbox exposes it as six argv-only flags. Podman gained the driver
half in #2245/#2512 and Kubernetes in #2633; the VM driver had none of it, so
VM sandboxes on proxy-only networks could not reach any destination requiring
the proxy even when policy allowed it.

The blocking piece was not proxy logic but delivery: the VM guest init script
runs as PID 1 and execs a fixed supervisor command line, and libkrun's
krun_set_exec receives an empty argv, so there was no channel for driver-owned
supervisor arguments. The supervisor's proxy flags deliberately have no
environment fallback, and build_guest_environment merges user-supplied
environment, so the guest env is not a safe transport either.

Add a driver-authored argument file, mirroring the existing init.d manifest:
the driver writes /opt/openshell/supervisor-args into the overlay upperdir on
every launch and the guest reads it verbatim, one argument per line, appending
it to every supervisor exec. It is written even when empty, which is what makes
the channel unforgeable -- the upperdir always shadows the read-only image
layer, so an image can neither supply its own arguments nor disable the
operator's by omitting the file. Because both launch backends exec the same
init script, this covers libkrun and QEMU without touching either.

A microVM has no bind mounts or container secrets, so the credential and CA
bundle are staged into the per-sandbox overlay the way the gateway JWT already
is: credential root-only at 0600, CA at 0644, both rewritten every launch so a
removed setting clears prior material, and both deleted with the sandbox state
directory. This places the credential at rest in the overlay image on the
gateway host, which differs from the Podman secret model and is documented as
an explicit security consideration.

Validation is fail-closed and shared: a new
openshell_core::driver_utils::validate_upstream_proxy_settings holds the
pairing rules the Podman driver established, and both the gateway and the
driver call it so an invalid table names the offending key instead of
surfacing as an opaque driver-readiness timeout.

Guest egress leaves through gvproxy, so a proxy on the gateway host's loopback
is reachable only through host.openshell.internal; the guest to gateway
callback is unaffected.

Closes #3088

* fix(vm): bound the proxy CA read and scope the host-loopback recipe

Two review findings on the corporate forward proxy support for microVM
sandboxes.

The driver read the operator's proxy_ca_bundle with an unbounded fs::read and
accepted it on a substring match for the PEM BEGIN CERTIFICATE marker. A
special file such as /dev/zero therefore grew driver memory without bound on
every authorized sandbox create, and a PEM block holding invalid DER passed
the host check but contributes no trust anchor in the guest, so every
supervisor would fail after boot with an error attributed to the sandbox
rather than to the setting.

Move the read into openshell-core as read_upstream_proxy_ca_bundle_file: it
reuses the credential reader's bounded-read path (non-regular files rejected
on fstat, size capped, read bounded even if the file grows), then requires at
least one anchor that RootCertStore::add_parsable_certificates accepts. The
supervisor's own reader now delegates to it, so host acceptance and guest
acceptance are the same function and cannot drift.

The published host-loopback recipe was written for libkrun only. gvproxy NATs
host.openshell.internal to the gateway host's 127.0.0.1, but GPU sandboxes run
on the QEMU/TAP backend where that name resolves to the TAP host address and
the driver's own nftables input chain accepts only the gateway port from the
guest — no proxy on the gateway host is reachable there at any bind address,
so an operator following the generic recipe lost all proxy-required egress
while configuration validation succeeded.

Scope the recipe to libkrun in every reference and reject a gateway-host proxy
URL when a launch plan resolves to QEMU, naming the reason, instead of booting
a sandbox whose policy-approved CONNECTs all time out.

* fix(vm): match the QEMU proxy preflight to the selected TAP host

The gateway-host proxy guard added for the QEMU/TAP backend classified the
wrong set of addresses in both directions.

It ran at the top of configure_qemu_launch_plan, before the subnet allocation
that settles plan.host_ip, so it could not compare against the address the
guest actually reaches the host on. An operator pointing https_proxy at the
sandbox's own TAP host address, such as 10.0.128.1, passed the check, and the
driver's nftables input chain — which accepts only the gateway port from the
guest — then dropped every policy-approved CONNECT, which is exactly the
silent timeout the guard exists to prevent.

In the other direction it rejected 192.168.127.254 unconditionally. That
address is special only to libkrun/gvproxy; on QEMU/TAP it is an ordinary
address that may be routable through the guest's masqueraded egress, so the
guard refused a working configuration.

Run the check after the launch plan's network allocation, on both the
freshly-allocated and already-complete paths, and compare IP literals with
that sandbox's selected TAP host. Loopback literals, localhost, and the
documented host aliases that write_host_gateway_aliases seeds to the TAP host
still classify as the gateway host, and the failure names the address. The
gvproxy host-loopback constant returns to being a documentation anchor.
