Backport NVidia driver 430.50 to Buster

[Maxime G.]

Hi Julien.

As is mentioned in the tracking page for nvidia: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/nvidia-graphics-drivers
440.26-1 was accepted in experimental yesterday, Debian is a very stable distro, maintainers and quality teams can take all of their time to make great packages.

You can purpose to bring your help to maintainers team for making a bpo version ?

Regards.
Max.
