This verifies that we can allocate the entire base subnet when calling
`nextAvailable`.
When AZs are feature-complete, we can just grep for `TODO(az)` to figure
out what to fix up.
# Description

This adds a feature flag to enable/disable all the feature flag code,
which will allow us to merge the `availability-zones` branch once we're
confident that, with the feature disabled, everything in Multipass works
as before.

This adds a simple `SingleAvailabilityZoneManager` that creates a stub
availability zone matching the networking config we had before the AZ
code was introduced. This just creates a `Subnet` object from the
`multipass_subnet` file, which is currently only used on Linux+qemu;
other backends don't use the `Subnet` object without AZs enabled.
(Though #4688 will start using `Subnet on macOS+qemu as a way of
handling the Tahoe issue: #4383.)

## Testing

- Unit tests updated to handle both states of the feature flag.
- Manual testing:
    - AZs disabled
        1. Build `main` branch
        2. Start `multipassd` and then `multipass launch` a new instance
        3. Stop the daemon
        4. Checkout this PR
        5. Build with `cmake .. -DAVAILABILITY_ZONES_ENABLED=OFF`
        6. Start `multipassd` again
7. Ensure you can `multipass start` + `multipass shell` with your
existing image
- AZs enabled (note that migrating from `main` to AZs enabled doesn't
work yet):
        1. Build this PR as normal with AZs on (`cmake ..`)
        2. Start `multipassd`
3. Run `multipass launch` + `multipass shell` to make sure networking
works
4. Run `multipass info` to ensure that the output includes the zone

This gives us more options to pick a working subnet, on the off chance
that 192.168.252.0/24 is in-use.

# Description

This PR improves error messages and fixes an issue with restoring the
saved subnet information when the AZ feature flag is disabled. It should
fix the CLI tests on macOS; they were working on Linux (surprisingly),
but that's likely due to some timing differences.

## Testing

Run the unit and CLI tests on macOS to verify the fix.
