Describe the improvement request

NVIDIA drivers should be kept up-to-date in the image.

I think that a daily scheduled workflow could be used to check for updates of NVIDIA drivers, and create a PR with the new version number set in variables.auto.pkrvars.hcl when an update is detected. We may also want to have a workflow running on PRs that builds and tests the image, but does not save it.

NVIDIA drivers
The decision to go from one major version to another should be done by a human (e.g. by updating the scheduled workflow).
The latest datacenter driver versions can be found on https://docs.nvidia.com/datacenter/tesla/index.html. We should probably parse this HTML file (e.g. with https://pypi.org/project/beautifulsoup4/ or https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/DOMParser/parseFromString) and figure out the latest version for a given major (e.g. 470 -> 470.103.01 at the time of writing).
