[pve-devel] [PATCH manager stable-7] pve7to8: add check for nvidia-vgpu-mgr

[Dominik Csapak]

Currently the nvidia vgpu host driver (15.2) does not support kernels >
6.0 and thus will not work with bookworm based releases for now.

Fail when the service is running, and warn if it only exists, but is
disabled/stopped (in case a user installed it sometime but did not need
it and disabled it).

In any case, link to the known issues section in the upgrade guide
(which we can update to contain up-to-date information).

I opted to not parse more specific information about the driver (like
version, etc.) since it increases the complexity of the check but
without any real upside currently. If there is some future version that
supports it, we can update that to only warn/error for not supported
versions.

I'll add the section to the upgrade guide shortly
