Description

### Steps Followed:

1. Spin up a VM with Ubuntu 22.04 (OS) and NC4as_T4_v3 (Size)
2. Go to Extensions and Applications and add NVIDIA GPU Driver Extension

### Issue:
1. The Extension deployment gets stuck at `Provisioning` state.

### Problem Analysis:

Checking the logs of installation, it is found system is waiting for us to enter password and there is no way for us to enter password in automated script. The status at Azure keep stagnated at `Provisioning` state instead of showing this issue to user.

### Proposed Solution:

We should probably indicate user the issue on the portal so that it is not the point of confusion or strictly mention user to disable secure boot before installing extension as a pre-requisite.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the NVIDIA GPU Driver Extension deployment on an Ubuntu 22.04 NC4as_T4_v3 VM and review the installation logs described in the issue. Done means the secure-boot prerequisite or password prompt is surfaced clearly instead of leaving the extension stuck at Provisioning.
