Brendan CreaneandGitHub a7cb5745a2 tstest/natlab/vmtest: add Fedora + DNS-backend coverage, harden non-KVM boot (#20409)
* tstest/natlab/vmtest: make cloud VM boot robust without KVM

Adding heavier distro images (Fedora) surfaced several ways the cloud VM
boot path breaks under TCG software emulation (no /dev/kvm), especially
with multiple concurrent VMs on few cores.

- Add a virtio-rng device to the cloud path so early boot doesn't block in
  getrandom() waiting for the CRNG to seed.
- When no hardware acceleration is available, relax the stuck-console
  watchdog (tuned for KVM's ~1-2s first output) and serialize VM boots so a
  heavy guest doesn't starve its siblings' emulation threads.
- Bound the bring-up context to the test deadline and dump each VM's console
  on failure, so a hang surfaces as a diagnosable Fatalf instead of an
  opaque `go test -timeout` panic (which skips cleanups).

* tstest/natlab/vmtest: add Fedora and DNS-backend test coverage

Add the first RHEL-family distro and the machinery to assert and provision
distinct DNS backends, so adding a distro isn't "basically equivalent" to
the others.

- Add a Fedora 43 image (NetworkManager + systemd-resolved, SELinux
  enforcing). restorecon-relabel the curl'd binaries so they exec under
  enforcing mode.
- Add DNSBackend/AssertDNSBackend, reading the dns_manager_linux_mode_*
  clientmetric to assert which backend tailscaled selected.
- Add a WithDNSMode node option. WithDNSMode(DNSDirect) masks
  systemd-resolved and writes a plain resolv.conf pointing at natlab's fake
  DNS, forcing the direct backend -- so one image covers multiple backends.
