Marc Eisenbarth e25397a431 scripting: allow creating macOS VMs with the Apple backend
createAppleVirtualMachine hardcodes the guest OS:

    config.system.boot = try UTMAppleConfigurationBoot(for: .linux)

Every other field in the record is already honoured via
updateConfiguration(from:). The OS is the only thing a script cannot ask
for, and UTMAppleConfigurationBoot.init(for:) already accepts one.

This reads `os` from the record (as an AEKeyword, the same as `backend`;
sdef enumerations do not arrive as strings), defaulting to .linux so
existing scripts are unaffected. When the OS is macOS it requires and sets
`macRecoveryIpsw`, since without it the VM has nothing to restore from.

It also derives macPlatform from the caller's IPSW. fillVZConfiguration
throws platformUnsupported for a macOS guest with no platform, so setting
the OS and IPSW alone produces a VM that is created and then fails to
start with "This virtual machine cannot run on the current host machine."
The hardware model comes from the caller's own image via
VZMacOSRestoreImage.image(from:) rather than fetchLatestSupported: the
caller named a specific IPSW and the model must match it. An IPSW this
Mac cannot run fails with the same error the wizard shows.

And it gives a macOS guest a display, audio, keyboard and pointer by
default. The scripted create clears `displays` (the headless-by-default
convention that suits a Linux guest with a serial console), and
fillVZConfiguration only builds a graphics device when `displays` is
non-empty. For macOS that produced a guest with no framebuffer: it booted
to 0% CPU and UTMData.run chose a headless session because there was
nothing to show. The defaults mirror VMWizardState for a new macOS VM
(1920x1200, audio, generic keyboard, trackpad on Ventura+). A caller may
still override `displays`, but the input and audio devices cannot be set
from a script, so they are always enabled for a macOS guest.

The sdef gains an `operating system` enumeration (linux / macOS) and a
`macRecoveryIpsw` file property. The property name matches the existing
macRecoveryIpswURL and the "IPSW Install Image" label in
VMConfigAppleBootView.

UTMScripting.swift: the UTMScriptingOperatingSystem enum matches the
output of bridge-gen.sh for this sdef change.

Verified against main on Xcode 26.6 / Apple Silicon: a macOS 26.6.2 VM
created from AppleScript with OperatingSystem=macOS, a HardwareModel,
MachineIdentifier, AuxiliaryStoragePath and a 1920x1200 Display in the
resulting config.plist, and booted to Setup Assistant in a UTM display
window.
