vmspawn previously hardcoded virtio-blk for all drives. This adds --image-disk-type= to select the root disk type (virtio-blk, virtio-scsi, or nvme) and allows per-drive overrides via a colon-separated prefix on --extra-drive=. The format and disk type prefixes can appear in any order since their value sets don't overlap. For virtio-scsi, a single shared controller is created with drives attached as scsi-hd devices. For nvme, each drive gets its own controller. Both have serial number length limits (30 and 20 characters respectively), so long filenames are replaced with a truncated SHA-256 hex digest.
