Writegear - use hardware encoder #19

QUESTION ❓
User asked about the working/usage of VidGear APIs.
SOLVED 🏁
This issue/PR is resolved now. Goal Achieved!
Writegear uses libx264 or libx265 encoders. Is it possible to make use of existing hardware encoders - for example on an Intel CPU the h264_vaapi encoder. I ask as using libx264 my CPU is saturating and the output video is dropping frames. In tests I have done outside of Writegear, using the h264_vaapi encoder significantly reduces the CPU load.
