Although acceptible to Intel CPUs, it's still undefined behaviour according to the C++ standard.
It can be replaced with memcpy, which makes the code simpler, and it generates the same assembly code with gcc and clang with -O2 (verified with godbolt).
Also expanded the test to include other little endian CPUs by testing for __LITTLE_ENDIAN__.
* Replaced most remaining sprintf with snprintf
* Deprecated encodeFormat and introduced new method that takes the buffer length
* Also increased buffer size at call sites to be a little bigger, in case int is 64 bit
Replaced sprintf with safer snprintf
* Straightforward replacement of sprintf with safer snprintf
* Trickier replacement of sprintf with safer snprintf
Some functions were changed to take another parameter: the size of the buffer, so that they can pass that size on to snprintf.

* * fixed errorneous pointer access in JSON parser.
* it's now crash-test time! temporarily set the initial parser buffer size to just 40 bytes. let's run all the test and check if the buffer is always correctly resized and handled
* fixed pointer use in JSON parser; added the proper test to catch this case
* fixed the test to make it more challenging. generate test json with

* integrated the new C++ persistence; removed old persistence; most of OpenCV compiles fine! the tests have not been run yet
* fixed multiple bugs in the new C++ persistence
* fixed raw size of the parsed empty sequences
* [temporarily] excluded obsolete applications traincascade and createsamples from build
* fixed several compiler warnings and multiple test failures
* undo changes in cocoa window rendering (that was fixed in another PR)
* fixed more compile warnings and the remaining test failures (hopefully)
* trying to fix the last little warning
- persistence.cpp code expects special sizeof value for passed structures
- this assumption is lead to memory corruption problems
- fixed/workarounded test to prevent memory corruption on Linux 32-bit systems
