For example, haarcascade_frontalface_alt2.xml is now supported.
Note that classifier's pattern of a cascade file must be consistent,
i.e., all trees must either have two nodes or one node, otherwise
unexpected results will occur.
Other fixes:
Test cases are updated.
Some unused codes are removed.
Fix some problems of haar when using OclCascadeClassifierBuf.
remove as much warnings as possible
use enum instead of MACRO for ocl.hpp
add command line parser in accuracy test and perf test
some bug fix for arthim functions
add getoclcontext and getoclcommandqueue so that other opencl program can interactive with opencv ocl module
correct haar test cases
add face detection sample
add OCL 1.2 feature for setTo
bug fix of integral
replace the error code -217 with suitable MACRO
simplify tests, no need apply a new context for each test case
add more control for tests in utility.hpp
