chore: POC for a lxd provider with a losetup server on the host
Metadata
Current evaluation
A proof of concept for an LXD provider using a host-side losetup server is stalled after a maintainer asked whether grub-install can run in the container with the required syscall interception.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: POC has been inactive for 48 days with an unanswered technical question regarding `grub-install` support, indicating it is likely abandoned or superseded by other implementation approaches. No maintainer assessment or labels have been applied.
