[~] Automatically tracked dependencies between modules
[+] Support for optional module dependencies
[+] Options to choose modules to build
[~] Removed hardcoded modules lists from OpenCVConfig.cmake, opencv.pc and OpenCV.mk
[+] Added COMPONENTS support for FIND_PACKAGE(OpenCV)
[~] haartraining and traincascade are moved outside of modules folder since they aren't the modules
mainly cmake stuff, but in persistance the wcstombs
is not supported on android, and in
sift.cpp there was and ifdef that affected arm and this
causes undefined symbols on android.
