Deprecated upstream in Q1'2018 in favour of dev-libs/intel-neo and
while it officially remains the recommended solution for "legacy HW
platforms" not supported by NEO (i.e. Sandy Bridge, Ivy Bridge and
Haswell GPUs), there has been no repository activity since August 2018.
Only really suitable for code development due to poor performance, some
OpenCL-aware software (e.g. media-gfx/darktable) explicitly blacklists
Beignet devices.
Upstream does not support LLVM versions newer than 7, third-party
patches exist for 8 and 9 but Beignet built against those versions fails
some unit tests.
Removal in 30 days. Bug #710640.
