Relates to D27980 <https://phabricator.kde.org/D27980>

a card here is a "3D Accelerator" "Card". whatever that means...
It's a graphics card essentially, except, technically not a graphics card, also technically not a card, that's just how we enumerate it on a system level. This is the mirror term for what we call it in the get_drm_devices_sysfs() variant, there it's the verbatim device name card0,card1,card2... while here we don't have that (or at least I don't think we have) hence the bespoke 'Card 0', 'Card 1', 'Card 2' string.
