CMake's get_filename_component with NAME_WE parameters, interprets first period as start of extension. For. e.g file name with out extension of 'this.is.a.text.file.txt' will be taken as 'this'. Hence using NAME with regex replacement to get 'this.is.a.text.file'

Looks like we don't actually use them; when creating precompiled headers
with Visual C++, a dummy .cpp is created at build time.

added script to build the universal opencv2.framework for iOS device and simulator. fixed opencv_world cmake script to create static libopencv_world.a for iOS. temporarily disable compressed file storages in the case of iOS (to avoid dependency of zlib)

fixed 2 build problems on MacOSX (highgui with ffmpeg, opencv_world); added macro CV_INIT_ALGORITHM for simpler algorithm registration (ticket #1876)

Shortened CMake script for opencv_world. Fixed opencv_world link with non-Visual Studio generators on Windows.

added opencv_world module that combines all the other [selected by user] OpenCV modules, except for opencv_python and opencv_gpu.
