Cubie A7A / A7Z product spec tables were missing the video codec row (H.264/H.265 hardware encode up to 4K@30fps, decode up to 4K@60fps) that the sibling Cubie A7S page lists. All three boards use the same Allwinner A733 SoC, so the capability row is identical; this makes the three pages consistent and answers recurring customer questions about H.264 hardware encode (e.g. 1080p60) support on A733 boards.

Summary
Add the video codec specification row to the Cubie A7A and Cubie A7Z product spec tables (Chinese + English), aligning them with the sibling Cubie A7S page.
docs/cubie/a7a/README.md/docs/cubie/a7z/README.mdi18n/en/.../cubie/a7a/README.md/i18n/en/.../cubie/a7z/README.mdThe wording is copied verbatim from the existing Cubie A7S spec table. All three boards (A7A / A7S / A7Z) are built on the same Allwinner A733 SoC, so the hardware video codec capability is identical:
Why
A customer asked whether H.264 hardware encode at 1080p60 works on an A733 board and noted "nothing is documented". Internally we verified that the A7S page already lists the encode capability while the A7A / A7Z spec tables omit the whole codec row, which is a cross-product documentation inconsistency on the same SoC.
This change closes that gap so all three A733-based product pages state the same codec spec, and future users can find the H.264/H.265 hardware encode/decode capability directly on each board's spec table.
Scope note
The change touches two product folders (
cubie/a7a,cubie/a7z) but is one coherent fix: the identical spec row added to two sibling boards of the same SoC family. Local PR guard passed with--max-scopes 2; 1 commit, 4 files, bilingual (zh/en) complete.Source: internal support case (Cubie A733 H.264 HW encode inquiry).
