[Feature] Support mainline RKNPU "Rocket" driver

I have searched the existing feature requests, both open and closed, to make sure this is not a duplicate request.

The feature

As of kernel 6.18, a mainline driver for the rknpu is available, however it is fundamentally different from the downstream one, so it would need to be implemented separately. I'm not really versed in this kind of stuff but I know it is in mesa 25.3 and that it can't be a drop-in replacement for the previous rknpu driver.

Does ONNX support that driver? Previously only tflite supported it. See #13243 (reply in thread) for previous discussion

Not as far as the docs state, I searched the onnxruntime repo for something related to Rocket driver and got nothing. I opened a feature request for it.
