Subject: [PATCH] Optimize regex compilation in DockerProgressParser
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Refactor DockerProgressParser to use `OnceLock` for regex caching, eliminating
needless recompilation during instantiation. This improves instantiation time
by ~36x (485µs -> 13µs).

Note: The original task pointed to `rust/vm-config/src/validate.rs`, but that
file was already optimized (using manual parsing). The regex recompilation
issue was identified in `vm-provider` instead.
