VAAPI driver for the Intel GEN8+ Graphics family

Description

The VA-API (Video Acceleration API) enables hardware accelerated video decode/encode at various entry-points (VLD, IDCT, Motion Compensation etc.) for the prevailing coding standards today (MPEG-2, MPEG-4 ASP/H.263, MPEG-4 AVC/H.264, and VC-1/WMV3). It provides an interface to fully expose the video decode capabilities in today's GPUs.

This package contains the video decode and encode driver backend for the Intel HD Graphics of the Intel Core processor family. The supported platforms include:
 * Broadwell
 * Skylake
 * Broxton
 * Apollo Lake
 * Kaby Lake
 * Coffee Lake
 * Whiskey Lake
 * Cannon Lake
 * Ice Lake

Only a limited set of encoders is available via this driver: JPEG (Skylake and newer), AVC (Boxton and newer), HEVC and VP9 (Ice Lake and newer). Media shaders are only available on Ice Lake and newer.
