Hello,

first of all I want to thank you guys for the continuous support of this important plugin.

Unfortunately my untouched setup of vagrant and parallels stopped working recently after I did some updates here and there. It took me some effort to understand the root cause of this, so I would like to share that finding and ask for improved documentation here. I use vagrant and parallels on Mac M3 to control a Linux VM.

Obviously some default mount options used for the prl_fsd file system are gone after version 2.4.4. Starting with tag 2.4.5 I find the mount options "nosuid, nodev and noatime" gone as part of commit d6a35f3. I would like to ask if such a major change in behavior should be mentioned in the changelog. It would have saved me some hours if so. I just had to add those options to my synced_folder configuration as

mount_options: ["nosuid", "nodev", "noatime"]

to make everything work again.

I also find it very interesting that the most current master branch has additional support for the "share" mount option which was gone for a long period of time if not it was never supported before. So I cloned the branch and built my own private gem to have full mount options support including "share". Publishing a new version of the plugin soon would be really nice to make this obsolete.
