Subject: [RFC 3/7] gpu: nova-core: introduce vgpu_support module param.

Introduce a kernel module param to set vGPU support in nova-core.

vgpu_support = 1 (default): automatic

The driver automatically enables or disables vGPU support based on if the
GPU advertises SRIOV caps.

vgpu_support = 0: disabled

Explicitly disables vGPU support. The driver will not enable vGPU support
regardless.
