Kyle Isom 47ec4e60ad unikernel: isolated host-only bridge networking (Phase 2) ...

When the mcp-br0 bridge exists, the agent runs unikernels on it instead
of QEMU user-mode networking: each VM gets a TAP device on the bridge
and a static 10.99.0.0/24 IP (baked into the Nanos image via ops
RunConfig). With the host firewall dropping off-bridge VM traffic and no
NAT, a VM can reach only the gateway -- making mc-proxy mediation
mandatory by topology rather than convention.

- runtime/qemu.go: bridge mode (createTAP/destroyTAP, IP allocator,
  deterministic MAC, static-IP ops config, VMAddr for proxy backends).
- agent auto-enables bridge mode when /sys/class/net/mcp-br0 exists.

Verified on straylight: uktest unikernel boots on mcp-br0 at 10.99.0.2,
serves via the gateway, TAP enslaved to the bridge; bridge has no uplink
and off-bridge forwarding is dropped.
