Ubuntu 24.04: MESA: error: ZINK: vkCreateInstance failed (VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER)

[MikeMcC399]

Current behavior

Cypress outputs garbage errors running on a headless Ubuntu 24.04 LTS GitHub-hosted runner:

MESA: error: ZINK: vkCreateInstance failed (VK_ERROR_INCOMPATIBLE_DRIVER)
glx: failed to create drisw screen

The test is however successful.

Desired behavior

Cypress should not output error messages which do not apply to a headless situation. Vulkan is only used when there is a GPU. On a headless system there is by definition no GPU active.

Should probably do the same as #29278 and expand the logic to strip these out.

@MikeMcC399 True, we did make some progress on the Electron 28 upgrade, so it might come first.
