whisper.cpp: enable the ggml OpenVINO backend
Runs the whole model through OpenVINO, next to the Vulkan backend.
Both register as GPU devices and whisper uses one per run, selected
with whisper-cli -dev N, so the two can be compared on the same
build. whisper-bench has no device option; the README points at
whisper-cli's exit timings instead.
The backend includes opencl.hpp directly, so like openvino it needs
OpenCL-CLHPP 2026.05.29, which the buildsystem provides via a hint.
Test-built on -current, sbopkglint clean.
