Hello!

I think it will be very good if KInfoCenter displays information about graphic cards in 'About System' under 'Hardware'. For example Intel IvyBridge Mobile/ Intel HD Graphics 5500 / AMD Radeon R5 M255 or to have a dedicated section under 'Device Information' or 'Graphical Information'.

Reproducible: Always

Pushed by sitter into branch 'master'.

add gpu entry to about system

Summary:
simply queries gl_renderer from gl

also refactor string processing for (R) and (TM) replacement so
it can be shared for cpu and gpu entries

I do wonder if we need to blacklist software gl somehow though
FIXED-IN: 5.19.0

Test Plan:
shows something of value on amd and intel

depends on D26667
