Add interface to Annoy which will replace the FLANN #25708
This PR is to add interface to [Annoy](https://github.com/spotify/annoy) which will replace the FLANN, part of one of the cleanup work of OpenCV 5.0: #24998.
After it, there will be consecutive patches:
- [ ] Add Annoy based DescriptorMatcher
- [ ] Replace FLANN based code with Annoy and remove FLANN completely

added blob contours to blob detector
* added blob contours
* Fixed Java regression test after new parameter addition to SimpleBlobDetector.
* Added stub implementation of SimpleBlobDetector::getBlobContours to presume source API compatibility.
This commit adds the feature of selecting the thickness
of the matches drawn by the drawMatches function.
In larger images, the default thickness of 1 pixel creates images
that are hard to visualize.
* 8-bit SIFT descriptors
* use clearer parameter
* update docs
* propagate type info
* overload function for avoiding ABI-break
* bugfix: some values are undefined when CV_SIMD is absent
* Implement ASIFT in C++
* '>>' should be '> >' within a nested template
* add a sample for asift usage
* bugfix empty keypoints cause crash
* simpler initialization for mask
* suppress the number of lines
* correct tex document
* type casting
* add descriptorsize for asift
* smaller testdata for asift
* more smaller test data
* add OpenCV short license header
