Updated nvenc.pc (they keep changing the layout with almost every release - looks amateurish):

prefix=/opt/nvenc10
exec_prefix=${prefix}
includedir=${prefix}/Interface
libdir=/usr/lib64/nvidia


Name: nvenc
Description: NVENC
Version: 10
Requires: 
Conflicts:
Libs: -L${libdir} -lnvidia-encode
Cflags: -I${includedir}

Presets added in r27634. (gets rid of the warnings with the new drivers)

As for their new preset API. Meh.
It is meant to simplify things but we've already done the hard work of customizing all the settings so this doesn't really improve anything for us.
(and the only presets we would be interested in are P1-P2, so the tuning is probably still needed?)

Let's worry about moving over when they drop the old presets.
