linux6.11: Enable dm-vdo compression/deduplication module.

#### Testing the changes
- I tested the changes in this PR: **briefly**

"Tested" in the sense of:

- I built locally for x86_64 and aarch64 (glibc)
- During builds, I verified that Kconfig stated no changes to the config file were to be applied
- After installing the package, I verified that the kernel module existed on disk in a reasonable location:

```
$ file /lib/modules/6.11.6_2/kernel/drivers/md/dm-vdo/dm-vdo.ko.zst
/lib/modules/6.11.6_2/kernel/drivers/md/dm-vdo/dm-vdo.ko.zst: Zstandard compressed data (v0.8+), Dictionary ID: None
```

Doing further testing of this requires [userspace utilities](https://github.com/dm-vdo/vdo) I have yet to package (but hopefully intend to later today/this weekend)

I intend to open separate PRs to do a similar enablement for linux6.10 and linux6.9. (VDO was only upstreamed starting in 6.9).

There's a closed pull request on the void-packages repository

linux6.11: Enable dm-vdo compression/deduplication module.
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/52976

Description:
> For context on what VDO is, see [the userspace utilities repo README](https://github.com/dm-vdo/vdo) or [this Red Hat blog post](https://www.redhat.com/de/blog/look-vdo-new-linux-compression-layer).

#### Testing the changes
- I tested the changes in this PR: **briefly**

"Tested" in the sense of:

- I built locally for x86_64 and aarch64 (glibc)
- During builds, I verified that Kconfig stated no changes to the config file were to be applied
- After installing the package, I verified that the kernel module existed on disk in a reasonable location:

```

/lib/modules/6.11.6_2/kernel/drivers/md/dm-vdo/dm-vdo.ko.zst: Zstandard compressed data (v0.8+), Dictionary ID: None
```

Doing further testing of this requires [userspace utilities](https://github.com/dm-vdo/vdo) I have yet to package (but hopefully intend to later today/this weekend)

I intend to open separate PRs to do a similar enablement for linux6.10 and ~~linux6.9~~. (VDO was only upstreamed starting in 6.9. EDIT: we don't package 6.9 anyway, cool).

Comment:
This got no traction or reviews, and I wound up back on ZFS anyway rather than trying to fight an all `dm-*` stack, so closing. Anyone is free to revive this work if they're interested in it, of course!
