Subject: [PATCH] Enable accelerated video decode on Linux

This will enable accelerated video decode on Linux by default (i.e.
without "--ignore-gpu-blacklist"), but on NixOS we'll provide
"--disable-accelerated-video-decode" and
"--disable-accelerated-video-encode" by default to avoid regressions
(e.g. VA-API doesn't work properly for some radeon drivers).

Video acceleration can then be enabled via:
chromium.override { enableVaapi = true; }
without rebuilding Chromium.
