cockpit-project/cockpit-machines — reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a Cockpit add on for managing virtual machines from a server web console.

I want users to open the Cockpit machines page and see their virtual machines, with clear status updates like running or stopped. They should be able to do normal VM tasks from the UI, like start, stop, delete, create, and edit machine settings, using the standard Linux virtualization tools behind the scenes.

Please make it feel like a real Cockpit plugin, not a separate app. It should build into a distributable folder, support installation into Cockpit, and work with the existing libvirt based workflow. Include the basic developer setup so someone can run make, build it locally, and package it for Linux systems. Keep the code typed and maintainable, and set it up so translations, tests, linting, and release packaging can be handled cleanly.
