This PR adds the first real vsock transport foundation for scoutd. The guest now establishes separate control and log channels to the host during early boot, sends an initial hello on the control channel, and keeps control traffic separate from raw log output from the start.
It also moves vsock bootstrap earlier in the init path so the control channel exists before the rest of guest setup continues. That lets the panic path send a final fatal report and stack trace to the host over vsock before powering the microVM off, instead of relying on stderr as a fallback observability path.
Overall, this change establishes the long term host guest communication model for scoutd and gives the guest a deterministic failure reporting path before networking, MMDS, and workload launch are layered on top. closes #4
