[Impact]

Starting from kernel v6.8, Intel demands the use of in-tree VSC driver
instead of the out-of-tree dkms originated from
https://github.com/intel/ivsc-driver.

[Fix]

The main fixes are in kernel & dkms packages. This adds ivsc-modules to
Provides list of linux-image-generic as other built-in linux-modules-foo
packages do.

[Test Case]

The generated meta package linux-image-generic should then provides
"ivsc-modules".

[Where problems could occur]

Meta package changes only. No real effect but in package dependency.

[Other Info]

While the ivsc-dkms obsoletion only happens for kernel >= 6.8, this will
only be nominated for Unstable/Noble/OEM-6.8.
