On further inspection I believe adding these as distro features may be 
a better idea than machine features.

I believe the best course of action would be to re-evaluate all recipes 
that utilize the "gpu" machine feature and either switch it to use 
distro features and PACKAGECONFIGS (my gstreamer-plugins example should 
actually be removed as it is a pointless override).

Either x11 or wayland distro features should be enough to pull in 
software rendering toolkits and graphics frameworks like Qt so any 
overrides we had to prevent that should be dropped. That seems to be 
the way upstream intends that to work.

The rgx-gpu / sgx-gpu features will be added to switch mesa configs, 
pull in according kernel modules, and tweak other packages as 
necessary. There will need to be a preliminary check though to make 
sure sgx-gpu and rgx-gpu features aren't both included as currently 
these will clash.

Please feel free to correct me though. Unfortunately Yocto gives us too 
much freedom here.
