LTS OFED 23.10 doesn't install rdma-core-devel from MOFED repos

[sjpb]

Older builds used OFED 24.04. This included the rdma-core-devel package from Mellanox.

#427 changed OFED to the LTS version 23.10, now that was supported for RL9. However this install uses rdma-core-devel from appstream, which doesn't feel right:

Furthermore, adding the undocumented OFED repos for 23.10 shows there is a Mellanox rdma-core-devel package :-(

Note that on the client build, installing lustre via something similar to #447 removed the rdma-core-devel package entirely.

So turns out that our "nightly" build which installs OFED does install the Mellanox rdma-core-devel package, but during fatimage build, installing OHPC packages replaces it with the @appstream one.

Closed now using DOCA - in fact even the current OFED package solved it I think.
