    libgomp.texi: Improve "OpenACC Environment Variables"
    
    None of the ACC_* env vars was documented; in particular, the valid valids
    for ACC_DEVICE_TYPE found to be lacking as those are not document in the
    OpenACC spec.
    GCC_ACC_NOTIFY was removed as I failed to find any traces of it but the
    addition to the documentation in commit r6-6185-gcdf6119dad04dd
    ("libgomp.texi: Updates for OpenACC.").  It seems to be planned as GCC
    version of the ACC_NOTIFY env var used by another compiler for offloading
    debugging.
    
    libgomp/
            * libgomp.texi (ACC_DEVICE_TYPE, ACC_DEVICE_NUM, ACC_PROFLIB):
            Actually document what the function does.
            (GCC_ACC_NOTIFY): Remove unused env var.
