In WSLCContainer::Create, the bind source path for file mounts was constructed using std::format with a narrow format string but passing sourceFilename (std::wstring) alongside parentVMPath (std::string). This is a type mismatch in standard C++20 std::format. Convert sourceFilename to narrow string via WideToMultiByte before formatting to ensure type consistency and correct behavior.

Pull request overview
Fixes a C++20 std::format argument type mismatch in the WSLC container create path by ensuring wide strings aren’t passed to a narrow format string when constructing Docker bind mount sources.
Changes:
- Convert
sourceFilename(std::wstring) to UTF-8std::stringviawsl::shared::string::WideToMultiByte()before using it instd::format. - Keep the bind source construction logic unchanged for directory mounts (no filename suffix).

Problem
In
WSLCContainer::Create(), the bind source path for file mounts is constructed usingstd::formatwith a narrow format string but passingsourceFilename(std::wstring) alongsideparentVMPath(std::string).std::formatwith a narrow format string does not acceptstd::wstringarguments in standard C++20. This is a type mismatch that could cause compilation failures or undefined behavior.Fix
Convert
sourceFilenamefromstd::wstringtostd::stringviaWideToMultiByte()before passing it tostd::format, consistent with how the codebase handles wide-to-narrow conversions elsewhere.Testing
Type-correctness fix in the volume bind path construction for file mounts (introduced in #40137).
