fix(lima): correct Lima e2e template schema for limactl validate

[kylerankin]

Fixes #111.

limactl validate failed on the lima-e2e installer + boot verification template
(.github/scripts/bluefin-lima-template.yaml, introduced in PR #104) with three
schema errors:

1. unknown field "localShell" under ssh — drop the ssh block entirely.
2. field "images" must be set — extend base: [template:_images/ubuntu-24.04],
   which supplies the required images and resolves the guest arch.
3. invalid CPU/memory unit parsing when the template base is missing — resolved
   once the base template is present.

Also replace the removed nested: enabled field with the standard Lima
nestedVirtualization: true so /dev/kvm is exposed to the guest for the
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm boots the e2e script performs.

This delivers the corrected lima-e2e installer + boot verification workflow and
script (which were not present on main) alongside the fixed template, and adds a
contract test asserting the template uses the standard Lima schema.

Closing. I pushed the one fix that was genuinely in scope, and the remaining blocker is an architecture decision about runner platform that I should not make for you — compounded by the fact that this job duplicates one we already have.

What I fixed and verified. The PR's stated goal was to make the template pass limactl validate, and it had missed one field: containerd.guest is not a Lima key — the schema is system/user, and this repo's own files/lima/bluefin-server-kiosk.yaml already uses user: false. I corrected that. unit is green on the new head.

What that did not fix, and cannot. The fresh run after my push (35371853548) still fails at step 5, "Start Lima VM with nested virtualization":

arch=aarch64
level=fatal

.github/workflows/lima-e2e.yml sets runs-on: macos-latest, which is Apple Silicon. bluefin-lima-template.yaml uses base: template:_images/ubuntu-24.04, which resolves the guest architecture from the host — hence aarch64, and Lima pulls the arm64 cloud image. The template then provisions qemu-system-x86, and .github/scripts/lima-e2e-install-boot.sh runs qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -cpu host. x86_64 KVM acceleration cannot exist on an aarch64 guest, so even if limactl start succeeded the e2e could not work. nestedVirtualization: true is also only honoured under vmType: vz, which the template never sets.

That is not a rebase or a lint fix. It needs either an x86_64 runner with nested virt — which GitHub-hosted macOS does not provide — or moving the whole thing to the ghost cluster. I deliberately did not flip runs-on myself: that is redesigning your job under the banner of fixing CI, and it still would not go green, because an earlier ubuntu attempt (run 34783212809) died at limactl cp with rsync: [generator] chgrp ... Operation not permitted and, past that, the script asserts the installed disk reaches multi-user.target — which is the pre-existing /var emergency-mode failure that #173 fixes.

Two reasons the arch question may be the wrong one to answer.

1. This duplicates installer-test. build.yml already installs the real image and boots it in QEMU asserting multi-user. fix(boot): remove udevd sysext ordering drop-in to prevent var mount deadlock #173 has been verified to fix the /var failure that makes that job red, so the incumbent gate is about to start working again. A second, slower, arch-mismatched install-and-boot path is not obviously worth maintaining alongside it.
2. It violates a hard rule. lima-e2e-install-boot.sh runs just export-installer — a full BuildStream DDI and installer build — on a GitHub-hosted macOS runner with timeout-minutes: 240. AGENTS.md is explicit: "Heavy builds MUST always run on the ghost cluster using BuildStream distributed builds; do not build standalone OS artifacts directly on local workstations."

One correction for the record. The PR body says the template was "introduced in PR #104" and that limactl validate was failing on it. That file does not exist on main — .github/workflows/ there contains only build.yml, docs-checks.yml, kernel.yml and unit-tests.yml. So #104 is unmerged, and this is a +273/-0 new-feature PR carrying a fix(lima): prefix. That matters because it changes the review question from "is this fix correct" to "do we want this job at all".

Also worth knowing: tests/unit/test_lima_e2e_contract.py's new assertion "localShell" not in (data.get("ssh") or {}) is vacuously true — the template has no ssh key at all. And nothing in that test runs limactl validate, which is the exact thing the PR set out to guard, so it could not have caught the schema bug it was written for.

Please reopen if you want to pursue this on the ghost cluster, or push back here if you think the duplication argument is wrong — it is a judgement call and I would rather discuss it than have it closed silently. The containerd.guest correction is pushed and preserved on the branch either way.
