Merge pull request #25796 from hanliutong:hfloat 
Use hfloat instead of __fp16. #25796

Related: #25743

Currently, the type for the half-precision floating point data in the OpenCV source code is `__fp16`, which is a unique(?) type supported by the ARM compiler. Other compilers have very limited support for `__fp16`, so in order to introduce more backends that support FP16 (such as RISC-V), we may need a the more general FP16 type.

In this patch, we use `hfloat` instead of `__fp16` in non-ARM code blocks, mainly affected parts are:
- `core/hal/intrin.hpp`: Type Traits, REG Traits and `vx_` interface.
- `core/hal/intrin_neon.hpp`: Universal Intrinsic API for FP16 type.
- `core/test/test_intrin_utils.hpp`: Usage of Univseral Intrinsic
- `core/include/opencv2/core/cvdef.h`: Definition of class `hfloat`

If I understand correctly, class `hfloat` acts as a wrapper around FP16 types in different platform (`__fp16` for ARM and `_Float16` for RISC-V). Any OpenCV generic interface/source code should use `hfloat`, while platform-specific FP16 types only used in macro-guarded code blocks.
