Build the mlnx-nfsrdma subpackage from the NFS/RDMA sources in the pinned MLNX OFED bundle for x86_64 and aarch64 base kernels. Integrate source extraction, compilation, installation, and packaging through the existing phased kernel-module include mechanism. Build against the matching kernel tree and OFED headers and symbol versions, and require the corresponding kernel-core and OFED module packages. Install modules under extra/mlnx-nfsrdma and run depmod after package installation and removal. Provide compatibility aliases for the kmod-mlnx-nfsrdma and mlnx-nfsrdma-modules package names. Bump the kernel package release to 1.3 and refresh the component lock and rendered build inputs. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

🟡 Changes recommended
The missing install-only provide causes DNF updates to replace the previous RPM and remove NFS/RDMA modules still needed by retained kernels.
