- Use Unix sockets for local --display spice to allow GL/VirGL acceleration - Use egl-headless backend to provide GL context for virtio-gpu-gl; do not enable SPICE gl=on (avoids blocking QEMU main loop) - Add -vga none for SPICE modes to prevent duplicate scanouts - Update start_viewer() to support spice+unix:// and spice://localhost:port connection modes for spicy and remote-viewer clients - Clean up Unix socket (.sock) files alongside existing .spice file cleanup Provides local GL-accelerated guest 3D via VirGL while keeping remote access over TCP unchanged.
