I'm working on it, but I ran into a problem: I can't install vim in the guest!
Adding it to the list of packages doesn't work; I still don't have a Vim binary
in the guest.  Without that, I have to rebuild the VM every time I want to make
a change, which makes it very hard to iterate while I figure out how to make
PipeWire talk to an emulated virtio-sound device QEMU provides.
