* calib3d: use normalized input in solvePnPGeneric()
* calib3d: java regression test for solvePnPGeneric
* calib3d: python regression test for solvePnPGeneric
* core: disable invalid constructors in C API by default
- C API objects will lose their default initializers through constructors
* samples: stop using of C API
Tests for argument conversion of Python bindings generator
* Tests for parsing elemental types from Python bindings
- Add positive and negative tests for int, float, double, size_t,
const char*, bool.
- Tests with wrong conversion behavior are skipped.
* Move implicit conversion of bool to integer/floating types to wrong
conversion behavior.
Improving VSX performance of integral function
* Adding support for vector get function on VSX datatypes so the
integral function gains a bit of performance.
* Removing get as a datatype member function and implementing a new HAL
instruction v_extract_n to get the n-th element of a vector register.
* Adding SSE/NEON/AVX intrinsics.
* Implement new HAL instruction v_broadcast_element on VSX/AVX/NEON/SSE.
* core(simd): add tests for v_extract_n/v_broadcast_element
- updated docs
- commented out code to repair compilation
- added WASM and MSA default implementations
* core(simd): fix compilation
- x86: avoid _mm256_extract_epi64/32/16/8 with MSVS 2015
- x86: _mm_extract_epi64 is 64-bit only
* cleanup
* Use FlsAlloc/FlsFree/FlsGetValue/FlsSetValue instead of TlsAlloc/TlsFree/TlsGetValue/TlsSetValue to implment TLS value cleanup when thread has been terminated on Windows Vista and above
* Fix 32-bit build
* Fixed calling convention of cleanup callback
* WINAPI changed to NTAPI
* Use proper guard macro
* Vectorize flipHoriz and flipVert functions.
* Change v_load_mirror_1 to use vec_revb for VSX
* Only use vec_revb in ISA3.0
* Removing vec_revb code since some of the older compilers don't fully support it.
* Use new v_reverse intrinsic and cleanup code.
* Ensure there are no alignment issues with copies
- move TLS & instrumentation code out of core/utility.hpp
- (*) TLSData lost .gather() method (to dispose thread data on thread termination)
- use TLSDataAccumulator for reliable collecting of thread data
- prefer using of .detachData() + .cleanupDetachedData() instead of .gather() method
(*) API is broken: replace TLSData => TLSDataAccumulator if gather required
(objects disposal on threads termination is not available in accumulator mode)
