rocDecode quick-start installation

To install the rocDecode runtime with minimum requirements, follow these steps:

1. Install core ROCm components (ROCm 6.1.0 or later) using the :doc:`native package manager <rocm-install-on-linux:how-to/native-install/index>` installation instructions.

• Register repositories
• Register kernel-mode driver
• Register ROCm packages
• Install kernel driver (amdgpu-dkms)--only required on bare metal install. Docker runtime uses the base dkms package irrespective of the version installed.

2. Install rocDecode runtime package. rocDecode only provides the librocdecode.so library (the runtime package only installs the required core dependencies).
