mediaserver: use nvidia legacy_535 (available on stable channel)

Browse source 
legacy_580 only exists on unstable nixpkgs and isn't backported to
25.11. The Maxwell GM206 (Quadro M2000) is supported through the
535.x branch — last production driver to ship Maxwell support — so
this is a clean swap with no expected impact on Jellyfin's NVENC.
