docs: Recommend installing vmnet-helper from Homebrew on macOS 26 #22516

@nirs

Description

@nirs

Update the docs for vfkit and krunkit to recommend installing vmnet-helper from Homebrew. This is easy to install, avoids the sudo configuration and ensures that you never run vmnet-helper as root when it is not needed.

Issues:

  • Work only on macOS 26, so complicates the install a little bit.

Example docs from vmnet-helper doing the same:
