Description
When running wsld on wsl2 side I get an eror: Failed to listen: Address already in use (os error 98). I have in my setup wsl-vpnkit and systemd which I believe might be interfering somewhere, preventing the socket from being properly established? My .wsld.toml is now just [x11].

Research direction
Start by reproducing the failure when running wsld on WSL2 with the reported wsl-vpnkit and systemd setup, using the minimal .wsld.toml containing only [x11]. Determine which listener reports “Address already in use” and whether either integration owns that socket. Done means identifying the conflicting listener and documenting or fixing a reliable resolution.
