Adapt to NVIDIA IndeX binaries for ParaView 5.12.

This MR adapts the superbuild to a new NVIDIA IndeX release that we will share soon.

As usual, the filenames and MD5 hashes of the "nvidia-index-libs-*.tar.bz2" tarballs still need to be updated once the packages have been generated with /home/jmensmann/paraview-superbuild/Scripts/index/extract-index.sh`. There will also be a separate MR for the main ParaView repo.

Besides switching to the new version 5.12 by default, the following changes were made:

  • The libraries "nvrtc" and "nvrtc-builtins" are no longer needed.
  • A text version of the EULA is now part of the release package and can be used instead of the file stored in the superbuild repo.
  • Added optional support for ARM (aarch64) IndeX libraries.
  • IndeX libraries for Power9 (ppc64le) are no longer shipped.
  • Removed unnecessary build restriction "MSVC_VERSION < 2000".

@ben.boeckel @mwestphal: Please review.
