Also add missing empty lines after headers in environment_variables.md
to ensure the file is valid markdown.

  • Scale YUV to prepare content for compression, with point, bilinear or box filter.
  • Convert to YUV from webcam formats for compression.
  • Convert to RGB formats for rendering/effects.
  • Rotate by 90/180/270 degrees to adjust for mobile devices in portrait mode.
  • Optimized for SSSE3/AVX2 on x86/x64.
  • Optimized for Neon/SVE2/SME on Arm.
  • Optimized for MSA on Mips.
  • Optimized for RVV on RISC-V.
