Neuron Runtime no longer supports Amazon Linux 2 (AL2)

Starting from Neuron release 2.20, the Neuron Runtime (aws-neuronx-runtime-lib) will no longer support Amazon Linux 2 (AL2).
The Neuron Driver (aws-neuronx-dkms) is now the only Neuron package that supports Amazon Linux 2.
However, the Neuron Driver requires Linux kernel 5.10 or higher. Since default AL2 AMIs ship with kernel 4.14, you must upgrade your AL2 kernel to 5.10+ before installing driver versions 2.18 and later, or migrate to Amazon Linux 2023 or Ubuntu which include compatible kernels by default.
