`Lume` `0.2` adds unattended macOS VM setup and agent hooks

Apple Silicon can now spin up disposable macOS VMs with almost no manual setup. MCP, REST, and image registry support make it practical for CI, sandboxed agents, and repeatable test machines.

[ KEY POINTS ]
  1. lume create ... --unattended tahoe automates macOS Setup Assistant via VNC + OCR, removing the slowest part of fresh VM provisioning.
  2. A background daemon exposes a REST API on port 7777, so CI jobs and scripts can start or manage VMs even after the terminal closes.
  3. Native MCP support lets coding agents create VMs and run commands inside them directly, which is useful for isolating risky runs from the host.
  4. Registry push/pull plus multi-storage support turns VM images into reusable build artifacts, especially when local SSD space is tight.
