Similarly to how it's done for other modules (VIRTUALBOX-GUEST-MODULES, WIREGUARD-MODULE, NTFS3-MODULE, KSMBD-MODULE), could you please make this package provide V4L2LOOPBACK-MODULE?

Thanks.

Also please consider splitting this package into 2: one that provides kernel module itself (_and provides `V4L2LOOPBACK-MODULE`_) and one that provides userspace utilities (_that depend on `V4L2LOOPBACK-MODULE`_).

The reason for this is that some 3rd-party kernels like `linux-pf` already provide `v4l2loopback` module so they need a package with utilities only.

Once this is implemented, consider moving [v4l2loopback-utils](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/v4l2loopback-utils/) off AUR.

Thanks.
