Bug Description
The Nvidia 361 drivers are known for performance regressions and issues with a handful of games. By replacing this package with version 364, the user gets a better performing driver that not only removes the issues with the 361 series, but also supports the Vulkan API that will be used in future games.
Since Xenial is an LTS release and about a month away, it may be wise to do the testing now for 364 so users can have a Vulkan ready driver in April. Since the LTS releases are supported for 5 years, you don't want to hold back Vulkan adoption by shipping an older and less desirable package.
