Drop i915 and amdgpu drivers from Talos rootfs, these will be packaged as extensions containing both firmware and drivers. Some modules like `ttm`, `i2c-algo-bit` etc have been left off since they are used by both amdgpu and i915, so makes sense to keep in plain talos.

With i915, there's an issue with kernel panic if the firmware is missing, while we the system can boot without i915 driver at all (relying e.g. on UEFI framebuffer).
With AMD GPU, we don't need that to be in the base system probably, as we don't ship NVIDIA GPU either.
Proposal: rename existing extensions as
amdgpu-firmware->amdgpu, and include both firmware and driversi915-ucode->i915, and include both firmware and driversProvide compatibility fallbacks in both Image Factory and Omni for renamed extensions.
