SystemD Backend - Container runtime using systemd-nspawn, machinectl, and nsenter.
This backend implements the ContainerBackend interface using:
- systemd-nspawn for container creation and execution
- machinectl for container lifecycle and inspection
- nsenter for exec into running containers
- journalctl for container logs
- systemctl for service management
