* Added performance tests for hal::norm functions
* Added sum of absolute differences intrinsic
* norm implementation updated to use wide universal intrinsics
* improve and fix v_reduce_sad on VSX
* 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
* added basic support for CV_16F (the new datatype etc.). CV_USRTYPE1 is now equal to CV_16F, which may break some [rarely used] functionality. We'll see
* fixed just introduced bug in norm; reverted errorneous changes in Torch importer (need to find a better solution)
* addressed some issues found during the PR review
* restored the patch to fix some perf test failures
* core:OE-27 prepare universal intrinsics to expand (#11022)
* core:OE-27 prepare universal intrinsics to expand (#11022)
* core: Add universal intrinsics for AVX2
* updated implementation of wide univ. intrinsics; converted several OpenCV HAL functions: sqrt, invsqrt, magnitude, phase, exp to the wide universal intrinsics.
* converted log to universal intrinsics; cleaned up the code a bit; added v_lut_deinterleave intrinsics.
* core: Add universal intrinsics for AVX2
* fixed multiple compile errors
* fixed many more compile errors and hopefully some test failures
* fixed some more compile errors
* temporarily disabled IPP to debug exp & log; hopefully fixed Doxygen complains
* fixed some more compile errors
* fixed v_store(short*, v_float16&) signatures
* trying to fix the test failures on Linux
* fixed some issues found by alalek
* restored IPP optimization after the patch with AVX wide intrinsics has been properly tested
* restored IPP optimization after the patch with AVX wide intrinsics has been properly tested

- 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
