modeco80 2d13268eb6 chore: Split vgpu_unlock-rs package
It never really made sense being in the nvidia-merged package; I just left it there
because a previous packager made the mistake (techinically by making it a seperate package
in that group I did improve the situation slightly, but only slightly.)

# `nvidia-merged`
This is NVIDIA vGPU R16 horribly hacked to build and work on up to Linux 6.11, along with `vgpu_unlock` and `vgpu_unlock-rs`.
# Building
**NOTICE**: the vGPU VFIO module needs CONFIG_IOMMUFD=n to function properly. No Arch pre-built kernels, to my knowledge, are built with this config option set correctly, so you will have to build your own kernel.
The nvidia vgpu_unlock patched and merged driver are in `packages/nvidia-merged`.
`vgpu_unlock-rs` is in `packages/vgpu-unlock-rs`.
`makepkg` will by default build with linux 6.1x patches.
To disable them, use `_use_new_patches="false" makepkg`. This is useful if you're not using a upstream kernel, since the later patches break building on older kernels.
