Description: Runtime 'OpenCL' support for R package developers: probe hardware
    and drivers, load and concatenate kernel sources, and manage
    dependency-annotated '.cl' libraries, so packages like 'nmathopencl' and
    other ported libraries can offer GPU acceleration without each re-implementing
    the same plumbing. Vignettes use the 'glmbayes' envelope-gradient example
    and likelihood subgradient methodology (Nygren and Nygren, 2006,
    <doi:10.1198/016214506000000357>).
