Context for reviewers: this PR is needed because Amazon Linux 2023 replaced yum with dnf and moved to newer kernels. The old get-vfio-with-wc.sh path depended on yum/yumdownloader and lacked a Linux 6.12 patch selection path, so patching failed on AL2023. This PR updates the package/source flow to dnf and adds Linux 6.12 patch handling. |

Why
Amazon Linux 2023 moved from yum to dnf and uses newer kernels (including 6.12).
The previous flow in get-vfio-with-wc.sh relied on yum/yumdownloader and did not include a Linux 6.12 patch path, so the old workflow no longer works on AL2023.
What this PR changes
Impact
This restores the enav2-vfio patch workflow on AL2023 and supports the newer kernel line by selecting the correct patch.
