Requirements:

Quick summary from preliminary doc reading having not tried any of them yet:
* VMware does not appear to support virtualizing macos apple silicon guests
* Parallels appears to be subscriptionware but will probably do what I want if I buy the pro edition (seems the lower tier doesn't have the CLI)
* UTM is free and seems to support MacOS guests, so I'm gonna try to install it and see what happens
