Add VgpuTypeIDToUint32 helper function

[PiotrProkop]

This PR adds new VgpuTypeIdToUint32 helper function that allows to retrieve underlying uint32 representation of nvmlVgpuTypeId:

type nvmlVgpuTypeId uint32

this makes it easier to programmatically create vgpus , for example:

echo $(uuidgen) > /sys/bus/pci/devices/0000\:06\:00.0/mdev_supported_types/nvidia-<typeID>/create

where <typeID> is this underlying uint32.

In previous versions of go-nvml I could just do type conversion to uint32 directly as device.GetSupportedVgpus() was returning:

type VgpuTypeId uint32

instead of Interface.

Thanks @PiotrProkop.

It would be good to get @klueska to also take a look at this.

[elezar]

I know that there are exceptions, but in general we try to expose NVML-functionality in these bindings and this goes against that a bit.

Does your example not indicate the need for a String() function off interface instead of an explicit *ToUint32 function?

[PiotrProkop]

I got impression that interface for VgpuTypeId is auto generated based on NVML lib funcs, so I wanted to propose less intrusive option. String or uint32 both works for me. I wanted to show that newer go-nvml version is missing some info that was present in older version.

@klueska did you had a chance to take a look at it? nvidia-smi also provide vgpu type id as hex value, sample output from nvidia-smi vgpu -v -c

    vGPU Type ID                          : 0x402

where x402 is 1026 in decimal and you can use it to create vgpus on the host by running:

echo $(uuidgen) > /sys/bus/pci/devices/<gpu_pci>/mdev_supported_types/nvidia-1026/create
