pci=realloc was forcing a full PCI resource reallocation on every default
and toram boot, added as a GPU BAR workaround for BIOS without Above 4G
Decoding. On a dense NVMe-backplane server it exhausted MMIO32 space and
silently dropped 4 of 6 NVMe controllers from the OS even though the BIOS
and lspci both saw them fine. It now only applies to the no-GUI/gsp-off
troubleshooting entry, alongside a bible-local ADR for the two prior
rounds of SAT/blackbox durability work.

Disabled PCIe devices (sysfs enable==0) carry no data traffic; their
link state has no operational impact. Switchtec PCIe switch management
endpoints on NVIDIA HGX H100 baseboards (and similar fabric controllers)
train at reduced speed intentionally and were producing spurious warnings.
Check is vendor-agnostic: reads enable attribute via existing helper,
no vendor/device ID hardcoding.

- nvidia collector: read pcie.link.gen.current/max from nvidia-smi instead
of sysfs to avoid false Gen1 readings when GPU is in ASPM idle state
- build: remove bee-nccl-gpu-stress from rm -f list so shell script from
overlay is not silently dropped from the ISO
- smoketest: add explicit checks for bee-gpu-burn, bee-john-gpu-stress,
bee-nccl-gpu-stress, all_reduce_perf
- netconf: re-exec via sudo when not root to fix RTNETLINK/resolv.conf errors
- auto/config: reduce loglevel 7→3 to show clean systemd output on boot
- auto/config: blacklist snd_hda_intel and related audio modules (unused on servers)
- package-lists: remove firmware-intel-sound and firmware-amd-graphics from
base list; move firmware-amd-graphics to bee-amd variant only
- bible-local: mark memtest ADR resolved, document working solution
