Description

Integrate hyperlight-unikraft with hyperlight-dev/hyperlight-sandbox (https://github.com/hyperlight-dev/hyperlight-sandbox) to offer a higher-level sandboxing API on top of the micro-VM runtime. This means understanding the hyperlight-sandbox API surface and how it expects guests to be packaged, working out the adapter layer between the unikraft ELF-loader model and what sandbox expects, and identifying any host function support or configuration sandbox needs that we do not provide yet.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the hyperlight-sandbox API and its guest-packaging expectations, then compare them with hyperlight-unikraft's ELF-loader model. Map the required adapter layer and identify missing host-function or configuration support; done means a defined integration path covering those requirements.
