Shorten menu titles and help text and make them consistent: * acronym * name * architecture and architecture features in parenthesis * no suffixes like "<something> algorithm", "support", or "hardware acceleration", or "optimized" Clarify architecture restrictions (e.g., include x86 in the names of all the x86-optimized modules. Simplify descriptions, update references, and ensure that https references are still valid.
