[Bug 1993558] [NEW] filter out "not supported" errors about dkms build failures

[Brian Murray]

Public bug reported:

I was looking at some nvidia crash reports in the Ubuntu Error Tracker
(https://errors.ubuntu.com/?package=nvidia-graphics-
drivers-515&period=month and more specifically
https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/2bd74bd6c63bbf70e53d9b7983c37368a1a5b630)
and discovered a pattern of some with log files like:

package:nvidia-dkms-515:515.65.01-0ubuntu0.22.04.1

Consult /var/lib/dkms/nvidia/515.65.01/build/make.log for more information.
dpkg: error processing package nvidia-dkms-515 (--configure):

I'm not certain its worth reporting errors when there are disconnects
between the kernel version and the nvidia driver.
