Update EVDI from 1.14.15 to 1.15.0.

EVDI 1.15.0 introduces feature probes and preliminary support for Linux 7.2. It also removes the distribution detection for which Nixpkgs previously substituted /etc/os-release.

The new probes still fail on kernels with allocation profiling enabled because they are compiled without KBUILD_MODNAME. This produces a false-negative kzalloc_obj result and causes the module build to fail. Vendor the fix proposed in DisplayLink/evdi#592 while that PR remains open.

Resolves #554981.
Supersedes #516848.

Things done

I verified the build against Linux 7.2 and 6.18.
