h264_nvenc, hevc_nvenc and av1_nvenc had no entry in encoders.texi. Document them in one section: hardware input and devices, the generic options they map, the options common to all three (presets and tuning, rate control, lookahead, AQ and B-frames, SEI and side data), and the options specific to each codec. Option names, named values, ranges and defaults follow the AVOption tables in nvenc_h264.c, nvenc_hevc.c and nvenc_av1.c, checked against ffmpeg -h encoder=<name> from a build against nv-codec-headers 13.1. Options that depend on the SDK version state the version they need. Signed-off-by: lusoris <lusoris@proton.me>
