Tools: Add Linux Mint “zara” codename translation to install-prereqs-ubuntu.sh

[vsumavane]

This PR adds support for the Linux Mint codename zara to the prerequisites installation script. Linux Mint “zara” (Mint 22.2) is based on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS (noble), but the installer currently does not include this codename in the Mint → Ubuntu translation table. This causes the script to stop early with:

Unable to map zara to an Ubuntu release.

What this PR does

• Adds "zara" to the existing Linux Mint → Ubuntu mapping block.
• Maps Mint "zara" to the correct Ubuntu base release: noble.
• Tested locally on Mint 22.2 (“zara”): installation proceeds normally after the fix.

Why this is needed

Without this translation, the installer cannot detect the correct Ubuntu base codename and exits prematurely. Supporting Mint codenames in this script is consistent with past contributions (e.g., additions for xia, vera, victoria, virginia merged in April 2024).

Reference

Linux Mint → Ubuntu base mapping verified from Mint’s official release information: https://www.linuxmint.com/download_all.php

Testing

• Verified on Linux Mint 22.2 “zara”
• Full install process runs successfully after applying this patch.

Notes

• No other behavior is changed.
• Follows the same pattern as previous Mint translation patches.
• Happy to update the mapping or add additional Mint variants if needed.

The install process running to completion really isn't enough to verify that things are working.

Please have a look at the tests I run when I create new Ubuntu Vagrant images in the top of Vagrantfile. Pl,ease run at least a selection of those commands and make sure they work.

OK, no response for request for testing evidence.

Closing this one now.

zara support would be nice, please feel free to re-open if you can show that it works.
