Setting LIMA_WORKDIR breaks `colima start`
Description
When you have LIMA_WORKDIR set to a path that is not in the colima VM, it breaks running colima start
For example:
INFO[0000] starting colima
INFO[0000] runtime: docker
INFO[0000] creating and starting ... context=vm
WARN[0025] error caching dependencies for mantic-debs: error retrieving OS version from vm: error running [lima sh -c grep "^UBUNTU_CODENAME" /etc/os-release | cut -d= -f2], output: "bash: line 1: cd: /home/eabrpar.linux/git: No such file or directory", err: "exit status 1" context=vm
WARN[0025] falling back to normal package install context=vm
> bash: line 1: cd: /home/eabrpar.linux/git: No such file or directory
FATA[0026] error starting vm: error at 'creating and starting': error installing packages using mantic-debs: exit status 1
Unsetting LIMA_WORKDIR fixes the issue.
Colima should probably unset LIMA_WORKDIR to prevent this from causing issues.
