Description of changes

Previously, enabling intel-media-driver would always pull in the OneVPL GPU runtime (vpl-gpu-rt), even on pre-Tiger Lake systems where it is not supported. This could result in a non-functional media runtime on Gen8–Gen11 hardware.

This patch introduces an explicit mediaRuntime option and makes the runtime selection configurable.

The default remains vpl-gpu-rt, since intel-media-sdk is currently marked as insecure in nixpkgs and cannot be enabled by default without breaking evaluation and CI.

Fixes #1755
