Make post-close VM removal safe against the cleanup coroutine.

close() checks vms.isNotEmpty() and then calls vms.first() in its adapterScope.launch block at Lines 631-633. This vms.remove(vmConnection) can run between those operations. first() then throws NoSuchElementException outside the inner try, so the cleanup coroutine terminates without handling the race.

Use an empty-safe read in the cleanup loop, such as firstOrNull(), and stop when the set is empty.

Suggested cleanup-loop fix 
-			while (vms.isNotEmpty()) {
-				val vm = vms.first()
+			while (true) {
+				val vm = vms.firstOrNull() ?: break

As per coding guidelines: an uncaught exception in a launch must be handled inside the coroutine.

at line 251, Update the close() cleanup loop to use an empty-safe VM lookup such
as firstOrNull() and stop when no VM remains, preventing
vms.remove(vmConnection) from causing an uncaught NoSuchElementException in the
adapterScope.launch coroutine.
