Description

**Describe the issue**
Can we add an option to set the IRQ for the Network card? I have been attempting to use this driver for 65K colors (https://github.com/PluMGMK/vbesvga.drv) and higher resolution, which works, but when I add a network card, for example NE2000, I cannot use it because the video driver wants that IRQ 9 port NE2000 is requesting too, therefore the networking no longer works. I confirmed it by reverting to the default VGA driver of Windows (Windows For Workgroups 3.11) and the networking worked again.

There are no other drivers for WIndows 3.11 on QEMU/UTM which would provide a such good video experience, so we need an option in UTM machine settings to change the IRQ the network card is requesting for use there.

I think the iOS version of UTM SE would need that too, since I was doing the machine on my mac to port it to my iphone later.

**Configuration**
* UTM Version: 4.7.3
* macOS Version: macOS Sequoia 15.7.2
* Mac Chip (Intel, M1, ...): MacBook Pro M4 Pro
