Description
### I have done the following
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
- [ ] If possible, I've reproduced the issue using the 'main' branch of this project
### Steps to reproduce
## Env
Machine: M1 Macbook Air
OS: MacOS 15.5
container version:
```shell
container --version
container CLI version 0.2.0 (build: release, commit: 3b5c253)
```
IPs info
- `container ls` > buildkit container's IP ADDR: `192.168.79.2`
- `ifconfig` > bridge100 inet: `192.168.79.1`
- `container inspect buildkit | jq '.[0].configuration.dns.nameservers'`: 192.168.79.1
## Steps to reproduce
Originally this happened when I tried to build an image (see details below) with a Dockerfile which has a RUN command `curl -LO https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/releases/download/v1.22.19/yarn_1.22.19_all.deb`. Afterwards, I found it also happened with the following steps:
1. Start a container `container run --rm -it ubuntu`
2. In container's bash
```shell
apt-get update && apt-get install curl -y
curl https://github.com
# curl: (6) Could not resolve host: github.com
```
Note: I also tried `curl https://www.apple.com` in container and it worked.
### Current behavior
### More details about the steps to reproduce
With the IPs above, running `container build` with a Dockerfile having a command `apt-get update` worked and resolved ubuntu.com on my side, but failed to resolve `github.com` when my Dockerfile has a RUN command `curl -LO https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/releases/download/v1.22.19/yarn_1.22.19_all.deb`.
When the buildkit nameserver IP is consistent with my subnet, not sure why it could resolve ubuntu.com with apt-get but failed to resolve github.com with curl?
Dockerfile FYR:
```dockerfile

### Expected behavior
curl `https://github.com` should work in the container.

Research direction
Start by reproducing with `container run --rm -it ubuntu`, then compare DNS behavior for github.com and www.apple.com using the reported BuildKit nameserver 192.168.79.1 and bridge100. Trace the `container run` and build networking entry points; no source file or test is named in the issue. Done means curl can resolve and fetch https://github.com from the Ubuntu container.
