app-emulation/virtualbox-extpack-oracle: allow old version to be installed with newer vbox

Windows 10 and 11 guests hang on >=7.0.6 additions when 3D acceleration
is disabled. The only workaround found besides enabling 3D acceleration is to
downgrade additions to 6.1.42 in the guest. This change allows the older
extpack (additions) to be installed with newer VirtualBox.

With this change, the Extension Manager will show a conflict in the but
otherwise causes no issues.

Enabling 3D acceleration is not an acceptable workaround to many due to
multiple long-standing graphical bugs.
