Podman machine CLI and interface stub

Podman machine will be a mac-only command that manages the VM where
containers are run. Currently, only the CLI is written and the interface
function for the VM management is stub for future developement

The podman machine cli is only built on mac builds.

+## NAME
+podman\-machine\-create - Create a new virtual machine
+
+## SYNOPSIS
+**podman machine create** [*options*] *name*
+
+## DESCRIPTION
+
+Creates a new virtual machine for Podman.
+
+Podman on MacOS requires a virtual machine. This is because containers are Linux -
+containers do not run on any other OS because containers' core functionality are
+tied to the Linux kernel.
+
+**podman machine create** creates a new Linux virtual machine where containers are run.
+
+## OPTIONS
+
+#### **--cpus**=*number*
+
+Number of CPUs.
+
+#### **--memory**, **-m**=*number*
+
+Memory (in MB).
+
+#### **--kernel-path**=*path*
+
+Print usage statement.
+
+#### **--device**=_device_[**:**_permissions_]
+
+Add a device to the virtual machine. Optional *permissions* parameter
+can be used to specify device permissions. **ro** means the device is read-only.
+
+Example: **--device=/dev/xvdc:ro**.
+
+#### **--help**
+
+Print usage statement.
+
+## EXAMPLES
+
+```
+$ podman machine create myvm
+$ podman machine create --device=/dev/xvdc:rw myvm
+$ podman machine create --memory=1024 myvm
+```
