Returns the name of the video adapter (e.g. "GeForce GTX 1080/PCIe/SSE2").
[b]Note:[/b] When running a headless or server binary, this function returns an empty string.
+ [b]Note:[/b] On the web platform, some browsers such as Firefox may report a different, fixed GPU name such as "GeForce GTX 980" (regardless of the user's actual GPU model). This is done to make fingerprinting more difficult.
