Introduce the 530 (UDA) NVIDIA driver series in Bionic, Focal, Jammy, Kinetic, Lunar

[Alberto Milone]

[Impact]
These releases provide both bug fixes and new features, and we would like to
make sure all of our users have access to these improvements.

See the changelog entry below for a full list of changes and bugs.

[Test Case]
The following development and SRU process was followed:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NVidiaUpdates

Certification test suite must pass on a range of hardware:
https://git.launchpad.net/plainbox-provider-sru/tree/units/sru.pxu

The QA team that executed the tests will be in charge of attaching the artifacts and console output of the appropriate run to the bug. nVidia maintainers team members will not mark ‘verification-done’ until this has happened.

[Regression Potential]
In order to mitigate the regression potential, the results of the
aforementioned system level tests are attached to this bug.

[Florian W. (florian-will)]

The nvidia-530 packages are not yet available in Lunar, which can cause some issues in the Ubuntu upgrade process for people who had already upgraded to nvidia-530 in Kinetic.
