This impacts all arm64 installs, not just raspberry pi.

The MIR for qrtr and protection-domain-mapper [0] was requested late in
the Mantic cycle and was only approved by Security since it was promised
to only be used for x13s hardware enablement. Hopefully Qualcomm IPC is
only enabled for x13s kernels.

As noted in the qrtr MIR:
> We should be cautious of IPC routers running root permissions. Similar code 
> has
> enabled vendor backdoors [1].

Furthermore, qrtr has nearly no documentation and has no inline code
comments [2].

Please remove this from the mantic and noble's ubuntu-meta package.
