Replace qemu/<guest>-<arch>.ini with qemu/<guest>-<os>-<arch>.ini, where os is
linux or darwin, the name platform.system() reports. The accelerators move out
of the shared <guest>.ini into these files (KVM on Linux, HVF on macOS, TCG as
the fallback). The launchers pick the file from the host system and
architecture, and reject amd64 guests on macOS hosts, so no darwin-amd64 files
exist.

Pick qemu-system-aarch64, the AArch64 UEFI firmware and a per-architecture
QEMU config (NVMe disk, virtio-net, ramfb, USB installation media) on arm64,
render the answer file for the target architecture, and move the q35-only
disk and NIC devices out of the shared config. Update vm-images to match
arm64 Windows ISO names.

Move the QEMU hardware definition of the Windows 11 VM into
qemu/windows11.ini and qemu/windows11-amd64.ini, loaded with -readconfig
like the Linux launchers. The network stays in the launcher because a
config file section cannot hold two hostfwd entries. Add --rdp-port and
--ssh-port, which override the WIN11_VM_*_PORT environment variables.
WIN11_VM_MEMORY and WIN11_VM_CPUS are replaced by the config file.

The option downloads the media a launcher would fetch automatically and
exits without checking for QEMU, creating a VM disk or starting the VM:
the base image for Debian, AlmaLinux and Fedora, and the VirtIO tools
ISO for Windows 11.

Let each run-*.py launcher take the VM directory (disk, seed ISO, UEFI
variables, PID file, console log) from the command line, taking
precedence over the *_STATE_DIR environment variable. Paths derived
from the state directory are now computed after argument parsing.

Each run-*.py mirrors its run-*.sh counterpart: same options, environment
variables, messages and QEMU command line. Unlike the shell scripts, the
Python ports use a portable /usr/bin/env shebang.
