Description

Adds the image hash to the output of multipass find, across all output formats (table, JSON, CSV, YAML).
without this I'm not sure if it is possible to programmatically check whether an instance is up to date without scraping internal JSON files science there is no way to compare a locally-running instance's image hash (shown in multipass info) with what multipass find returns.

Related Issue(s)

Closes #2689

Testing

Unit tests: added image_hash to 14 formatter golden files; all 28 DaemonFind and FindOutputFormatter tests pass.

Manual testing steps:

Run multipass find verify a new "Hash" column appears in table output (12-char prefix). Test with --format json, yaml and css (replace in --format json). Compare the hash of a running instance from multipass info with the corresponding entry in multipass find output and they should match.

Additional Notes

The hash is the same id field already returned by multipass info. In table format it is truncated to 12 characters for readability (consistent with how Git displays short SHAs); JSON, YAML, and CSV show the full hash for programmatic use.
