Lilipod support after the Go rewrite — current state and roadmap?

[enihcam]

Background: distrobox added Lilipod support in 2023 (commit 2201de4) and shipped it in 1.6.0. Issue #1710 showed flag incompatibilities (lilipod rm --volumes) before the rewrite.

Current main only has docker, podman, and podman-launcher providers. buildContainerManager does not recognize lilipod; autodetect only probes those three. The docs (docs/compatibility.md, docs/posts/install_lilipod_static.md, and a comment in pkg/containermanager/providers/podman.go) still mention lilipod.

Questions:

1. Was the Go provider intentionally dropped, or just not ported yet?
2. Is a Lilipod provider on the roadmap? If yes, when?
3. Can the docs be updated to match the code (or the code to match the docs)?
4. If lilipod comes back, would you accept a PR that ports the existing shell branches?
