This SRU all LGTM and as expected, but please include in the test case
an explicit regression to test to ensure that the previous functionality
still works as intended (i.e., a test of installing the nvidia X stack
on a desktop through the GUI).

Title:
Add support for installing gpgpu drivers
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common source package in Bionic:
Incomplete
Bug description:
SRU Request:
[Impact]
We need the ubuntu-drivers tool to be able to install gpgpu driver
meta-packages (without pulling in the kernel modules).
An additional "--gpgpu" parameter, paired with the "install" parameter
will provide this feature.
Note: in this first implementation - already available in Ubuntu 19.04
- only the NVIDIA driver packages are supported.
[Test Case]
1) Enable the -proposed repository, and install the new ubuntu-drivers-common
(340.107-0ubuntu0.16.04.2).
2) Make sure to have compatible NVIDIA hardware
3) Install the gpgpu driver:
ubuntu-drivers install --gpgpu
4) Make sure that the new driver is installed.
[Regression Potential]
Low. The changes do not affect the currently supported features.
