* Cleanup macros and enable expansion of `__VA_ARGS__` for Visual Studio

* Macros for enum-arguments backwards compatibility

* Convert struct Param to enum struct

* Enabled ParamType.type for enum types

* Enabled `cv.read` and `cv.write` for enum types

* Rename unnamed enum to AAKAZE.DescriptorType

* Rename unnamed enum to AccessFlag

* Rename unnamed enum to AgastFeatureDetector.DetectorType

* Convert struct DrawMatchesFlags to enum struct

* Rename unnamed enum to FastFeatureDetector.DetectorType

* Rename unnamed enum to Formatter.FormatType

* Rename unnamed enum to HOGDescriptor.HistogramNormType

* Rename unnamed enum to DescriptorMatcher.MatcherType

* Convert normType enums to static const NormTypes

* Avoid conflicts with ElemType

* Rename unnamed enum to DescriptorStorageFormat

* 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

Fixed snprintf for VS 2013 (#8816)

* Fixed snprintf for VS 2013

* snprintf: removed declaration from header, changed implementation

* cv_snprintf corrected according to comments

* update snprintf patch

Add MatlabFormatter for matlab style output.

This and several following commits contain the "boring" changes required
to support the new Ptr. These are changes like:

* new T -> makePtr<T> or .reset(new T) or Ptr<T>(new T)
  (depending on the situation)
* p.empty() -> !p
* delete_obj -> DefaultDeleter::operator()

and similar changes that are numerous, but primitive.

Made all STL usages explicit to be able automatically find all usages of
particular class or function.

adding the Brief descriptor, associated hamming distance functors for bruteforce matching.  Also adding cout << cv::Mat functions in core.
