Bug Description

Using Linux Mint 20.1 (based on Ubuntu 20.04, and using the nvidia-prime package from Ubuntu 20.04).

Running nvidia-prime package version 0.8.16~0.20.04.1.

I'm using this on an ASUS TUF Gaming laptop running a Ryzen 7 4800H APU with AMD Vega 7 Integrated Graphics (running on Open Source AMDGPU driver) and NVIDIA GTX 1650 Dedicated Graphics (running on proprietary NVIDIA driver version 460).

In both the nvidia-prime-applet, and in the prime plugin to the nvidia-settings tool, it lists my integrated graphics hardware as "Intel". This is incorrect, and should be "AMD" instead. This is mostly a cosmetic change, as it still functions as expected. However, I would expect all parts of my operating system to report correct information. As it's very easy to get information on which non-nvidia GPU's are available, there is no reason this can't be fixed to reflect the true information about my system.
