Re-remove cuda v11 (#10694)
* Re-remove cuda v11

Revert the revert - drop v11 support requiring drivers newer than Feb 23

This reverts commit c6bcdc4223.

* Simplify layout

With only one version of the GPU libraries, we can simplify things down somewhat.  (Jetsons still require special handling)

* distinct sbsa variant for linux arm64

This avoids accidentally trying to load the sbsa cuda libraries on
a jetson system which results in crashes.

* temporary prevent rocm+cuda mixed loading

Revert "remove cuda v11 (#10569)" (#10692)
Bring back v11 until we can better warn users that their driver
is too old.

This reverts commit fa393554b9.

remove cuda v11 (#10569)
This reduces the size of our Windows installer payloads by ~256M by dropping
support for nvidia drivers older than Feb 2023.  Hardware support is unchanged.

Linux default bundle sizes are reduced by ~600M to 1G.

doc: capture numeric group requirement (#6941)
Docker uses the container filesystem for name resolution, so we can't guide users
to use the name of the host group.  Instead they must specify the numeric ID.

Verify permissions for AMD GPU (#6736)
This adds back a check which was lost many releases back to verify /dev/kfd permissions
which when lacking, can lead to confusing failure modes of:
  "rocBLAS error: Could not initialize Tensile host: No devices found"

This implementation does not hard fail the serve command but instead will fall back to CPU
with an error log.  In the future we can include this in the GPU discovery UX to show
detected but unsupported devices we discovered.

Daniel Hiltgen 6c5ccb11f9 Revamp ROCm support
This refines where we extract the LLM libraries to by adding a new
OLLAMA_HOME env var, that defaults to `~/.ollama` The logic was already
idempotenent, so this should speed up startups after the first time a
new release is deployed.  It also cleans up after itself.

We now build only a single ROCm version (latest major) on both windows
and linux.  Given the large size of ROCms tensor files, we split the
dependency out.  It's bundled into the installer on windows, and a
separate download on windows.  The linux install script is now smart and
detects the presence of AMD GPUs and looks to see if rocm v6 is already
present, and if not, then downloads our dependency tar file.

For Linux discovery, we now use sysfs and check each GPU against what
ROCm supports so we can degrade to CPU gracefully instead of having
llama.cpp+rocm assert/crash on us.  For Windows, we now use go's windows
dynamic library loading logic to access the amdhip64.dll APIs to query
the GPU information.

Daniel Hiltgen d88c527be3 Build multiple CPU variants and pick the best
This reduces the built-in linux version to not use any vector extensions
which enables the resulting builds to run under Rosetta on MacOS in
Docker.  Then at runtime it checks for the actual CPU vector
extensions and loads the best CPU library available
