[SRU][kernel-snaps-uc24.04/pc][PATCH v5 1/1] snapcraft.yaml: Add nvidia-550 and nouveau component support

We use components here with the aim of providing a way for nvidia
drivers to be selected for the pc-kernel without having to rebuild,
targetting the nvidia-550 driver as a starting point with the aim of
supporting more driver versions in the future. Since nouveau, currently
included in the pc-kernel, conflicts with nvidia, we replace the nouveau
.ko with a component compatible with the nvidia component scheme.

Nvidia components are mostly self-contained, but a few changes to the pc-kernel
snap were required. files/meta/kernel.yaml is required to enable kernel
module support in snapd. The kernel-gpu-2404 content interface is
declared for exposing nvidia userspace libraries, and is not intended to
be accessed directly by users.
