Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
On Ubuntu 20.10 (also various other new distro releases), cuda-11 is now the standard apt-controlled version, not least perhaps as Nvidia state:

We advise customers updating to Linux Kernel 5.9+ to use the latest NVIDIA Linux GPU driver R455 that will be available for download from NVIDIA website and repositories, starting today.

It's also the default version to download for 20.04 now.

See brief discussion in chat room.

Describe the solution you'd like
Support for CUDA 11.x within accelerate ecosystem would be wonderful 👍

Describe alternatives you've considered
Using CPU-only builds fails for different reasons around libffi.so.7 (best as a separate issue)

I forgot to ping this ticket but this should all work now 👍
