3.x version of #52715.

This is a common source of confusion for Linux users. The message is growing quite long by now, but hopefully, this should prevent further duplicate issues from being created 🙂

See #52704.

Not so fond of making this even more verbose, as there's plenty more ways users can have driver issues and it's neither Godot related, nor something we should have to teach them in an error. IMO it would be better to find a good reference page for debugging non-working OpenGL and/or Vulkan drivers to sent users to (e.g. on Arch wiki or similar).

Still, doesn't hurt to add for now, but this won't be the last issue about this, mark my words ;)
