Fabiano Fidêncio f16b2fff3e DO-NOT-MERGE: build NVRC from a pinned git ref
Add a Kata static-build component for NVRC (tools/packaging/static-build/nvrc)
that clones the NVRC repository at a pinned git reference and builds a static
musl binary, mirroring the coco-guest-components build.  This lets the
composable-image work track NVRC changes from source instead of depending on a
signed upstream release.

The ref points at NVIDIA/nvrc#167 (fidencio/nvrc topic/adapt-for-composable-kata-images,
20d38ea), which carries the guest-side extension mounting.  This is a CI-only
crutch: once NVRC cuts a signed release with that work we go back to
downloading it from `url`, so this commit must be dropped before merge.

  - versions.yaml: add repo/ref/toolchain to externals.nvrc (and bump the
    version); the existing url is kept for the signed-release path.
  - lib.sh: add get_nvrc_image_name for the builder image.
  - kata-deploy-binaries.sh: add the nvrc build target, install_nvrc and its
    tarball path; get_latest_nvidia_nvrc_version now tracks ref+toolchain so
    the dependent NVIDIA images rebuild when the ref changes.
  - nvidia_rootfs.sh: consume kata-static-nvrc.tar.zst instead of downloading
    and cosign-verifying the release; the Sigstore .cert/.sig are now copied
    only when present (i.e. the signed-release path), since a source build
    emits just the binary.

Packaging scripts

This directory contains useful packaging scripts.

configure-hypervisor.sh

This script generates the official set of QEMU-based hypervisor build configuration options. All repositories that need to build a hypervisor from source MUST use this script to ensure the hypervisor is built in a known way since using a different set of options can impact many areas including performance, memory footprint and security.

Example usage:

  $ configure-hypervisor.sh qemu
