Running `make test` on macOS is unreliable due to missing tools (sha256sum), architecture mismatches (h2spec has no arm64 builds), and networking differences from the Linux production target. Add `make test-container` which bind-mounts the project into an Alpine container and runs the full test suite. A named volume caches compiled dependencies and tools between runs. Also fix Makefile portability issues uncovered along the way: - Add linux_arm64 SHA256 entries for vegeta and fortio - Broaden h2spec amd64 fallback to all arm64 platforms - Use sha256sum short flags (-cs) for BusyBox compatibility - Allow BINUTILS_DIR override via environment variable Makefile and Containerfile additions were assisted by Opus 4.6.

BusyBox and GNU coreutils sha256sum have incompatible flags: GNU supports --status but not -s, BusyBox supports -s but not --status. The status flag is not necessary — removing it causes sha256sum to print a confirmation line to stdout on success, but exit code behavior is unchanged.
Rename test-container-build/test-container to test-container/test-container-run, matching the existing container/container-run pattern.
