In -current, chromium (and derivatives) gain VA-API support

Following the previous reverted attempt [see earlier report], Robert Nagy (robert@) committed VA-API [hardware-assisted video - see previous report] support to the chromium and ungoogled-chromium ports. The iridium port can be expected to follow on next update.

Note that:

  • Updated (binary) packages are not yet available at the time of writing.
  • Intel GPUs requires ports graphics/intel-media-driver [and/]or graphics/intel-vaapi-driver.
