Dennis Kempin 6b06f405ff docs: Use mdformat to format markdown files 
The tool is added to ./tools/fmt which will be called during
./tools/presubmit as well as by Kokoro during testing.

This requires a new dev container version to bundle the mdformat
tool in the container.

Note: mdformat does not have any IDE integrations, but the prettier
plugin with prose-wrap enabled and a line length of 100 provides
almost identical results.

BUG=None
TEST=./tools/fmt --check

Introduction

The crosvm project is a hosted (a.k.a. type-2) virtual machine monitor.

crosvm runs untrusted operating systems along with virtualized devices. Initially intended to be used with KVM and Linux, crosvm supports multiple kinds of hypervisors. crosvm is focussed on safety within the programming language and a sandbox around the virtual devices to protect the host from attack in case of exploits in crosvm itself.

Other programs similar to crosvm are QEMU and VirtualBox. An operating system, made of a root file system image and a kernel binary, are given as input to crosvm and then crosvm will run the operating system using the platform's hypervisor.
