upgrade mesa on Ubuntu 22

For testing OpenSpace on Ubuntu 22, I wanted to upgrade the Mesa provided OpenGL to v4.6. According to https://linuxcapable.com/how-to-upgrade-mesa-drivers-on-ubuntu-linux/ - we have to use the repo kisak/turtle stable for Ubuntu 22.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kisak/turtle
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
Calculating upgrade... Done
