What it is?
===========
* OpenCV 4.0 comes with a new experimental Graph API module (see opencv/modules/gapi). This is a new experimental API which allows to enable offload and optimizations for image processing / CV algorithms on pipeline level.

* The idea behind G-API is to declare image processing task in form of expressions and then submit it for execution using a number of available backends. At the moment, theres reference “CPU” (OpenCV-based) and experimental “Fluid backends available, with OpenCL (GPU) and other backends coming up next.

* G-API Fluid backend implements a cache-efficient execution model and allows to save memory dramatically e.g. a 1.5GB image processing pipeline fits into 750KB memory footprint with G-API/Fluid. G-API comes with a number of operations implemented for Fluid backend, so one can switch OpenCV/Fluid operations within a graph easily and even mix both in the same graph.
* Samples and documentation are WIP and will be completed during 4.0 release timeframe.
