Pull request overview
This PR rewrites .github/copilot-instructions.md to be a more structured, concise set of contributor and agent instructions for working on Hyperlight (commands, definition-of-done, writing guidance, review priorities, and repo layout).
Changes:
- Reorganized build/test/lint guidance around
justrecipes and a “definition of done” checklist. - Added detailed writing and review heuristics (unsafe/Safety comments, security boundary focus, performance mindset).
- Reformatted and condensed the repository structure + troubleshooting guidance.
