add Vulkan support and expand 3D package descriptions

[igorpecovnik]

Summary

• Add Vulkan support packages to mesa-vpu extension
• Expand package definitions with individual inline comments for better documentation

Ref: #9423

Changes

• vulkan-tools: Vulkan utilities (vulkaninfo) for testing and debugging
• mesa-vulkan-drivers: Vulkan drivers for Mesa GPUs (Panfrost, Lima, Radeon, Intel)
• Expanded all package definitions with descriptive inline comments:
  • libglx-mesa0: Mesa OpenGL extension library for X11
  • mesa-utils: Mesa utilities for OpenGL information and testing
  • mesa-utils-extra: Additional Mesa demonstration programs
  • glmark2 variants: OpenGL 2.0/3.0 and ES 2.0 benchmark suite with Wayland/X11 backends

Benefits

• Enables Vulkan development and testing on supported hardware
• Improves code documentation and makes package purposes clear for maintainers

Test plan

• Build desktop image with mesa-vpu extension
• Verify Vulkan tools are installed (vulkaninfo command available)
• Test Vulkan driver loading on supported hardware (Panfrost/Radeon)

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Enhanced graphics package set for desktop installations, now including additional 3D rendering tools, graphics benchmarking utilities, and Vulkan support packages.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The desktop package set in the post_install_kernel_debs__3d function was expanded from a compact grouping to an explicit, detailed list of 3D graphics and Mesa-related packages, including mesa-utils-extra, glmark2 variants, vulkan-tools, and mesa-vulkan-drivers, with enhanced documentation.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Mesa/VPU Desktop Package Expansion extensions/mesa-vpu.sh	Expanded desktop package installation set from few combined packages to granular list of graphics utilities and drivers with enhanced inline comments.

Poem

🐰 With graphics tools now laid so bare,
Mesa packages everywhere!
Glmark2, Vulkan, drivers bright—
The rabbit's feast of 3D delight! ✨

🧹 Nitpick comments (1)

extensions/mesa-vpu.sh (1)

50-57: Drop the package aliases that are already covered by the explicit packages.

Line 51 is redundant: on Ubuntu Noble, mesa-utils already provides/replaces/conflicts with mesa-utils-extra, and on Debian trixie mesa-utils-extra is only a virtual package provided by mesa-utils. Likewise, Lines 52 and 55 are aliases for the explicit X11 packages already listed here: glmark2-x11 provides glmark2, and glmark2-es2-x11 provides glmark2-es2. Keeping both names makes the install set noisier without changing what gets installed. (code.launchpad.net)
