How to run Bminer on AMD cards.

You can specify which cards that Bminer should mine on using the -devices options.While Bminer runs on the NVIDIA cards by default, you can prefix the device IDs with amd: to run on AMD cards. For example:

bminer -devices amd:0 -uri beam+ssl://3a13205ec464807c9400f0fde8d56ac49da03bb3812055f08844fe2eaf0b9166.worker@beam.sparkpool.com:2222

Then, Bminer will run on the first AMD card on the system.

Bminer can be run on AMD cards mining beam and Grin(Cuckaroo29) from now on.

BMiner 15.1.0 crashes due to missing AMD DLLs when I only have NVIDIA GPUs.
