This branch drops VirtualBox in favour of Parallels as the virtualisation backend since Parallels runs on both Intel and Apple silicon Macs.
We also switch to using SSHFS to implement fielsystem sharing between the host and VM instead of Parallels built in folder sharing. I'm not sure why but Parallels built in folder sharing causes loads of permission issues. For whatever reason SSHFS works well, at the cost of increased CPU usage and worse fs performance.
chown currently fails inside the guest on the SSHFS mount, which means containers that use chown will also fail. This might be resolvable by passing some options to SSHFS to give the guest complete control over the host fs.
