imgproc: C-API cleanup, drawContours refactor #25564
Changes:
* moved several macros from types_c.h to cvdef.h (assuming we will continue using them)
* removed some cases of C-API usage in _imgproc_ module (`CV_TERMCRIT_*` and `CV_CMP_*`)
* refactored `drawContours` to use C++ API instead of calling `cvDrawContours` + test for filled contours with holes (case with non-filled contours is simpler and is covered in some other tests)
#### Note:
There is one case where old drawContours behavior doesn't match the new one - when `contourIdx == -1` (means "draw all contours") and `maxLevel == 0` (means draw only selected contours, but not what is inside).
From the docs:
> **contourIdx** Parameter indicating a contour to draw. If it is negative, all the contours are drawn.
> **maxLevel** Maximal level for drawn contours. If it is 0, only the specified contour is drawn. If it is 1, the function draws the contour(s) and all the nested contours. If it is 2, the function draws the contours, all the nested contours, all the nested-to-nested contours, and so on. This parameter is only taken into account when there is hierarchy available.
Old behavior - only one first contour is drawn:
a
New behavior (also expected by the test) - all contours are drawn:
Reworked findContours to reduce C-API usage #25146
What is done:
* rewritten `findContours` and `icvApproximateChainTC89` using C++ data structures
* extracted LINK_RUNS mode to separate new public functions - `findContoursLinkRuns` (it uses completely different algorithm)
* ~added new public `cv::approximateChainTC89`~ - **❌ decided to hide it**
* enabled chain code output (method = 0, no public enum value for this in C++ yet)
* kept old function as `findContours_old` (exported, but not exposed to user)
* added more tests for findContours (`test_contours_new.cpp`), some tests compare results of old function with new one. Following tests have been added:
* contours of random rectangle
* contours of many small (1-2px) blobs
* contours of random noise
* backport of old accuracy test
* separate test for LINK RUNS variant
What is left to be done (can be done now or later):
* improve tests:
* some tests have limited verification (e.g. only verify contour sizes)
* perhaps reference data can be collected and stored
* maybe more test variants can be added (?)
* add enum value for chain code output and a method of returning starting points (e.g. first 8 elements of returned `vector<uchar>` can represent 2 int point coordinates)
* add documentation for new functions - **✔️ DONE**
* check and improve performance (my experiment showed 0.7x-1.1x some time ago)
* remove old functions completely (?)
* change contour return order (BFS) or allow to select it (?)
* return result tree as-is (?) (new data structures should be exposed, bindings should adapt)
* 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
- removed tr1 usage (dropped in C++17)
- moved includes of vector/map/iostream/limits into ts.hpp
- require opencv_test + anonymous namespace (added compile check)
- fixed norm() usage (must be from cvtest::norm for checks) and other conflict functions
- added missing license headers
* Add test that fails
* Fix integer pointPolygonTest for large coordinate values
* Review fixes:
- change type from long long to int64
- move test code to test_contours.cpp, and make it C++98 compliant
* Hopefully fix compiler error by using push_back instead of emplace_back
Change contour test images to be very wide (#7464)
* Change contour test images to be very wide (#7409, #7458)
Unfortunately, slows down the tests.
* Decrease the number of contour test cases, in order to (at least partially) offset the test run duration increase caused by making the test images wider
* Don't test with very wide images on 32-bit architectures
