Podman machine returns wrong resources info on WSL

[lstocchi]

Issue Description

This is related to an issue opened on the Desktop side - https://github.com/containers/podman-desktop/issues/6451 Shortly, the user sees different values about the resources of a podman machine when using the cli and desktop. E.g. - On cli on desktop

The fact is that on WSL the podman machine uses the host resources so even if i create a podman machine with 14GB and 8 cpus, it has access to all memory/cpus available from the host. So displaying 14GB and 8 is not correct. Same for the disk size as it seems that it allocates 1TB by default, no matter the disk you have on the machine

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. create a podman machine on WSL and see the values displayed are not really the resourses it can use (you can ssh on the machine and see the resources available)

Describe the results you received

I see the resources defined when creating the podman machine

Describe the results you expected

it should show the resources available from the host

@l0rd @inknos would you think about this PR and if there is anything we can do about it?

[l0rd]

@baude at minimum we should be consistent (podman info and podman machine ls should return the same values) and ideally we should always show the values that are currently returned by podman info. I can give it a try during this bug week, unless @inknos wants to work on it.

[inknos]

@l0rd sure, I can take it. I was actually briefly checking it this afternoon
