Compilation FFMpeg / NVENC + NVRESIZE + QSV + VAAPI + VDPAU + OpenCL

nVidia nvresize patch is outdated and not more compatible to the latest version of FFmpeg, so it's not included in this documentation.

(even if I've passed a lot of time at trying to make it compile... without any success)

Please don't rely on this page: https://developer.nvidia.com/ffmpeg, the implementation is a hack and was never been added to the main FFmpeg tree.
