Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

When using DDEV with docker desktop for mac,
we can either use NFS sharing that is incredibly slow or mutagen that is really faster, but has synchnization potential delay, and requires double disk space tu run.
Since Docker Desktop 4.6 virtiofs experimental support is provided and seems to be an interesting alternative to NFS and mutagen.

Describe the solution you'd like

Implement virtiofs implementation.
see https://virtio-fs.gitlab.io/ and https://docs.docker.com/desktop/mac/#experimental-features
