The previous way of matching driver versions was error prone. For example, New Feature driver 415.22 would incorrectly match as being a Vulkan driver.

Some of the older download URLs are failing at the moment, failing our CI/CD: === Downloading sources Downloading https://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/aarch64/545.29.02/NVIDIA-Linux-aarch64-545.29.02.run % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Failed to download sources: module nvidia: The requested URL returned error: 404 make: *** [Makefile:8: all] Error 1 === Thankfully, NVIDIA has 'new' driver archives for Beta/New Feature/ Production drivers, targeting i386, x86_64 and aarch64 (respectively): - https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/ - https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/ - https://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-aarch64/ This change simply prioritizes these new URLs over the old ones.
For some reason, the download link for the 580.105.08 driver is currently missing from the aarch64 archive [1] (but it's present in the x86_64 archive [2]). Luckily, downloading this version from the 'Tesla endpoint' works, so just move this version there.

Some of the older download URLs are missing at the moment, failing our CI/CD:
Thankfully, NVIDIA has 'new' driver archives for Beta/New Feature/Production drivers, targeting i386, x86_64 and aarch64 (respectively):
This PR mainly prioritizes these new URLs over the old ones, but it also includes some other trivial but useful changes (please see each commit for more details).
Closes #447
