nixos docs: improve GPU driver documentation

Browse source 
I'm not 100% sure about the incompatibility lines,
but I believe it's better to discourage these anyway.
If you find better information, feel free to amend...

The 32-bit thing is completely GPU-agnostic, so I can't see why we had
it separately for proprietary drivers and missing for the rest.

The names of the video drivers the configuration
supports. They will be tried in order until one that
supports your card is found.
Don't combine those with "incompatible" OpenGL implementations,
e.g. free ones (mesa-based) with proprietary ones.
For unfree "nvidia*", the supported GPU lists are on
