Enable virtual GPU for tests

Implements comprehensive virtual GPU support for running GPU-dependent tests in headless GitHub Actions Linux runners using Xvfb and Mesa software rendering.

- Added Xvfb (X Virtual Framebuffer) setup for headless OpenGL rendering
- Configured Mesa LLVMpipe software renderer with optimized settings
- Set up proper environment variables (DISPLAY, LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE, GALLIUM_DRIVER)

- Fixed Linux RPATH configuration (`$ORIGIN/` vs macOS `@loader_path/`)
- Added `--disable-new-dtags` linker flags to force RPATH over RUNPATH
- Ensured automatic OpenUSD library discovery without manual LD_LIBRARY_PATH

- Created Linux-specific baseline images for all rendering tests
- Consolidated platform-specific baseline strategy using `_linux` suffix
- Added support for new tests: `TestFramePasses_ClearDepthBuffer` and `TestFramePasses_ClearColorBuffer`

- Updated `TestSearchEdges` and `TestSearchPoints` with Linux-specific expected results
- Fixed algorithmic differences between platforms in search functionality

- Limited test execution to Linux runners only (unlimited resources)
- Cleaned up redundant environment variable declarations
- Maintained platform-agnostic CMake presets
