1. fixed Python part of the tutorial about using OpenCV XML-YAML-JSON I/O functionality from C++ and Python.
2. added startWriteStruct() and endWriteStruct() methods to FileStorage
3. modifed FileStorage::write() methods to make them work well inside sequences, not only mappings.
* try to fix the doc builder
* added Python regression test for FileStorage I/O API ([TODO] iterating through long sequences can be very slow)
* fixed yaml testing
Updated the Windows Visual Studio Image Watch tutorial to include download links to the latest versions of Visual Studio Image Watch for newer Visual Studio versions.
The PREDEFINED setting for had a space between the define name and the equal sign and this is not allowed, it results in the warning:
```
error: Illegal PREDEFINED format '=', no define name specified
```
according to the documentation explicitly states that no space is allowed:
> The PREDEFINED tag can be used to specify one or more macro names that are defined before the preprocessor is started (similar to the -D option of e.g. gcc). The argument of the tag is a list of macros of the form: name or name=definition (no spaces). If the definition and the "=" are omitted, "=1" is assumed. To prevent a macro definition from being undefined via #undef or recursively expanded use the := operator instead of the = operator.

[GSoC 2019] Improve the performance of JavaScript version of OpenCV (OpenCV.js)
* [GSoC 2019]
Improve the performance of JavaScript version of OpenCV (OpenCV.js):
1. Create the base of OpenCV.js performance test:
This perf test is based on benchmark.js(https://benchmarkjs.com). And first add `cvtColor`, `Resize`, `Threshold` into it.
2. Optimize the OpenCV.js performance by WASM threads:
This optimization is based on Web Worker API and SharedArrayBuffer, so it can be only used in browser.
3. Optimize the OpenCV.js performance by WASM SIMD:
Add WASM SIMD backend for OpenCV Universal Intrinsics. It's experimental as WASM SIMD is still in development.
