Summary

Extended roles/nvidia/default.nix with comprehensive driver configuration options
Updated machines/zix790prors/configuration.nix to use the new role instead of duplicated config
Updated machines/wixos/configuration.nix to use the new role with WSL-specific extraPackages

New Options

open - Use open source kernel driver (default: true)
modesetting - Enable kernel modesetting (default: true)
nvidiaSettings - Enable nvidia-settings GUI (default: true)
package - Driver package selection (stable/latest/beta/vulkan_beta/production)
powerManagement.enable and powerManagement.finegrained
graphics.enable, graphics.enable32Bit, graphics.extraPackages

Test plan

Verify zix790prors builds: nixos-rebuild build --flake .#zix790prors
Verify wixos builds: nixos-rebuild build --flake .#wixos

Extend nvidia role to include driver configuration b79250ff76

The nvidia role now handles full driver configuration instead of just
packages. Added options for open driver, modesetting, power management,
graphics settings, and driver package selection.

Updated zix790prors and wixos machine configs to use the new role
options, removing duplicated hardware.nvidia configuration blocks.

Does this still make sense to do now that we're removing wixos?

Yes, the nvidia role extension still makes sense. The core value is the improved roles/nvidia/default.nix which benefits zix790prors.

If PR #20 (remove wixos) merges first, this PR will need a rebase to drop the wixos changes. Alternatively, merge this first and #20 will cleanly remove wixos afterward.

The wixos-specific changes here are incidental - the role itself is the main deliverable.
