This PR addresses the Docker volume issues encountered by users on M2 and M3 Macs, as reported in this thread: rancher-sandbox/rancher-desktop#1209
@cobbr2 just had a rough time with this one on his m2 mac. He was seeing similar permission errors when trying to mount host volumes, preventing services like PostgreSQL from starting correctly.
We were able to resolve the underlying issue by switching from the default QEMU emulation to VZ (Virtualization.framework) and enabling virtiofs for file sharing between the host and the guest VM.
The PR reintroduces the necessary configuration changes that were previously removed, as these are still required for M2 and M3 Macs running Rancher Desktop. This also adds the fix to prevent needing to manually select virtiofs to get it working too.
