Sylvain Bauza ff4d0d002a Rename vgpu options to mdev
As a prerequisite for blueprint generic-mdevs we need to rename the
existing enabled_vgpu_types options and dynamically generated groups
into enabled_mdev_types.
There is no upgrade impact for existing users, as the original
options are still accepted.

NOTE(sbauza): As we have a lot of methods and objects named gpu-ish
let's just change what we need here and provide followups for
fixing internal tech debt later.

deprecations:
- |
The existing config options in the ``[devices]`` group for managing virtual
GPUs are now renamed in order to be more generic since the mediated devices
framework from the linux kernel can support other devices:
- ``enabled_vgpu_types`` is now deprecated in favour of
``enabled_mdev_types``
- Dynamic configuration groups called ``[vgpu_*]`` are now deprecated in
favour of ``[mdev_*]``
Support for the deprecated options will be removed in a future release.
