Testing with opencv_test_cudaimgproc.exe, this commit reduces the number
of failed tests from 191 to 95. (96 more tests pass)

* Rename variables

cut one ocl kernel if normVariance is disabled,
also use native_powr for performance reason.

and add parametric unit test for crop layer.

* Newton's method can be more efficient

when we get the result of function distortPoint with a point (0, 0) and then undistortPoint with  the result, we get the point not (0, 0). and then we discovered that the old method is not convergence sometimes. finally we have gotten the right values by Newton's method.

* modify by advice  Newton's method...#10574

* calib3d(fisheye): fix codestyle, update theta before exit EPS check

UMatData locks are not mapped on real locks (they are mapped to some "pre-initialized" pool).

Concurrent execution of these statements may lead to deadlock:
- a.copyTo(b) from thread 1
- c.copyTo(d) from thread 2
where:
- 'a' and 'd' are mapped to single lock "A".
- 'b' and 'c' are mapped to single lock "B".

Workaround is to process locks with strict order.

Propagate calculated Gaussian kernel size(ref). Otherwise, ipp_GaussianBlur will fail if user doesn't specify a kernel size. (#10579)

use a batch_norm ocl kernel to do the work

- fix imports override.
  Problem is observed with BoostDesc.

- add Ptr<> handling (constructor is protected from other packages).
  Observed in ximgproc:
      Ptr<StereoMatcher> createRightMatcher(Ptr<StereoMatcher> matcher_left)"
  where, "StereoMather" is from another package (calib3d)

intermediate commit (to simplify code review)
