Code Review
This pull request introduces two significant debugging improvements for ephemeral VMs. First, it adds the ability to redirect virtiofsd output to log files within the container, which is now enabled by default for all mounts. Second, it sets up a systemd service within the guest VM to stream the system journal via a virtio-serial device to a log file in the container. The changes also include documentation for these new debugging features.
My review focuses on improving the asynchronous code quality. I've pointed out a couple of places where synchronous file I/O operations are used within async functions, which can block the executor thread. I've provided suggestions to use the asynchronous equivalents from tokio.
