The vm_lifecycle tool only supported start, stop, and restart actions. This meant AI agents could not pause/unpause VMs, causing them to fall back to stopping VMs instead (which is a fundamentally different operation). Add pause and unpause actions that use the KubeVirt subresource API (subresources.kubevirt.io/v1) to suspend and resume running VMIs in-place.

Summary
Adds
pauseandunpauseactions to thevm_lifecycletool using KubeVirt's subresource API (subresources.kubevirt.io/v1).With #1361 merged, the
AccessControlRoundTrippernatively resolves subresources without aKindfield via the discovery client fallback, allowing requests to KubeVirt's subresource endpoints without requiring explicit API group bypass declarations.Changes
