Adds an overview of supported hardware acceleration by platform to the handbook.
Includes:
Also adds information on how to configure hardware support at build time via
configure.pyand at runtime using environment variables.One thing that came out during documentation of the
configure.pyoptions, which Sphinx can automatically highlight via forwarding to docutils:--disable-sse4.1is not a POSIX-compliant command line option, as it only allows letters, numbers, and hyphens (not dots).I changedconfigure.pyaccordingly, so this means that:configure.py --disable-sse4.1is nowconfigure.py --disable-sse41configure.py --disable-sse4.2is nowconfigure.py --disable-sse42Decided to postpone this change to 4.0, if ever.
Closes #3824
