taps: MVE

- TUNSETIFF works, the interface is indeed created.
- An fd is indeed passed over the unix socket,
- and is a valid (enough) fd because it can fed into `dup2`.
- `nix run -f . --offline pkgs.taps -- pass sleep 5` works, the
  interface exists for 5 seconds and disappears
- `nix run -f . --offline pkgs.taps -- pass ch-remote --api-socket=$HOME/uvms/nixos/vmm.sock add-net fd=3`
  obscurely fails, killing the VMM with:

  ```console
