Proposal: Add optional BoxLite deployment profile #2247

Description

@DorianZheng

Summary

Could we add an optional BoxLite deployment profile for users who want a micro-VM sandbox path?

This is additive only. Existing deployment/runtime defaults should remain unchanged.

Why

  • Gives users a stronger-isolation option.
  • Preserves current Docker/Apple Container paths.
  • Can be introduced as an opt-in profile without breaking current installs.

Suggested scope

  1. Add an optional BoxLite deployment profile (installer/app marketplace/docs path).
  2. Keep current default behavior unchanged.
  3. Document compatibility and rollback path.

Minimal integration checklist

  • Install path for BoxLite runtime.
  • One quick verification command.
  • Rollback to existing runtime path.
