Distrobox but with Support for macOS (github.com/89luca89)

89luca89 mentioned that MacOS support was not in scope here: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/issues/1697

100% their prerogative and will respect it if they come down hard against on this.

but I've loved the project since my time on Linux and wanted the same in Mac land. I've just been too skittish to try... I had Claude help me cuz I figured if Linus could do a side project with some LLM prompting maybe I could, too.

Anyway, added some tests, got an MVP working, and started using it for my own use-cases at work the same day.
