Add ARMPL support for DFT Function #28664
- This PR introduces hal/armpl/ with implementation of 1D, 2D DFT and DCT routines using ARM Performance Libraries as a custom HAL replacement for OpenCV's DFT & DCT Function.
- ArmPL MSI package is automatically downloaded and extracted via CMake when building on Windows ARM64, with a WITH_ARMPL option that defaults to ON for that platform.
- Forward and inverse real DFT calls in dxt.cpp are routed through ArmPL when available, with scaling applied only when needed.
- Test error thresholds in test_dxt.cpp are relaxed (from 1e-5 to 2e-4 for float ) to account for numerical differences between ArmPL and OpenCV's reference DFT results.

cmake: fix PNG status display when BUILD_PNG=ON #28995
### Description
Fixes#28657.
On macOS (and other Apple platforms), `BUILD_PNG=ON` is the default. The build system correctly clears `PNG_FOUND` in `OpenCVFindLibsGrfmt.cmake` and builds libpng from the bundled source. However, during the subsequent module processing phase, a downstream `find_package(PNG)` call — triggered transitively via `include()` in the **same scope** — overwrites not only `PNG_FOUND`, but also `PNG_INCLUDE_DIR`, `PNG_LIBRARIES`, and `PNG_VERSION_STRING`.
#### Root Cause: FindPNG.cmake Has Asymmetric Guards
Reading CMake 4.3's `FindPNG.cmake` (`/opt/homebrew/share/cmake/Modules/FindPNG.cmake`) reveals:
| Variable | Guard? | Fate |
|---|---|---|
| `PNG_LIBRARY` | `if(NOT PNG_LIBRARY)` at line 138 — **guarded** | Preserved |
| `PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR` | `find_path(...)` at line 115 — **no guard** | **Overwritten** |
| `PNG_INCLUDE_DIR` | Derived from `PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR` | **Chain-overwritten** |
| `PNG_LIBRARIES` | Derived from `PNG_LIBRARY` + `ZLIB_LIBRARY` | **Partly overwritten** |
| `PNG_VERSION_STRING` | Parsed from `PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR/png.h` | **Overwritten** |
`PNG_LIBRARY` survives because FindPNG itself checks `if(NOT PNG_LIBRARY)`. But `find_path(PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR)` runs unconditionally — re-searching and overwriting the bundled path with the system one.
#### Fix: Three Coordinated Changes
**Part A — Status guard** (`CMakeLists.txt`): When `BUILD_PNG=ON`, pass `FALSE` as the condition to always show `"build"` regardless of `PNG_FOUND`.
**Part B — Variable lock** (`cmake/OpenCVFindLibsGrfmt.cmake`): After building from bundled source, lock `PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR` as `CACHE INTERNAL`. CMake's `find_path()` checks the cache first — if the variable exists with a valid path, it skips re-searching. The system path is never found.
**Part C — Cache cleanup** (`cmake/OpenCVFindLibsGrfmt.cmake`): Add `PNG_PNG_INCLUDE_DIR` to the `ocv_clear_internal_cache_vars()` call in the `else` branch. When a user switches `BUILD_PNG=OFF`, the cached variable is cleared, allowing `find_path` to search for the system libpng normally. Prevents stale cache leakage across configuration changes.
#### Verification (macOS 26, CMake 4.3, Homebrew libpng 1.6.58)
```
BEFORE downstream find_package(PNG):
PNG_LIBRARY = libpng
PNG_INCLUDE_DIR = .../3rdparty/libpng
PNG_VERSION_STRING = 1.6.37
AFTER downstream find_package(PNG) [with fix]:
PNG_LIBRARY = libpng ← preserved (FindPNG guard)
PNG_INCLUDE_DIR starts with .../3rdparty/libpng ← locked (Part B)
PNG_VERSION_STRING = 1.6.53 ← from bundled png.h
Status display: build (ver 1.6.53) ← correct (Part A)
```

Fix Clp library detection for vcpkg on Windows #28423
## Problem
Building OpenCV with `WITH_CLP=ON` on Windows (vcpkg) fails:
LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file 'libClp.lib'
vcpkg generates `Clp.lib` and `CoinUtils.lib`, but OpenCV expected `libClp.lib`/`libCoinUtils.lib`.
## Solution
Modernize CLP detection with a robust, platform-aware approach:
1. **CMake `find_package(Clp CONFIG)`**: detects vcpkg and uses imported targets (`Coin::Clp`, `Coin::CoinUtils`)
2. **Fallback**: pkg-config on Unix/Linux
3. **Skip** Android/iOS
## Benefits
✅ Fixes Windows build with vcpkg
✅ Uses modern CMake targets
✅ Backward compatible with Unix/Linux
✅ Safe for CI and mobile builds
✅ Graceful fallback if CLP unavailable
## Testing
- **Windows 11 + vcpkg**: build succeeds
- **No CLP installed**: configure/build succeeds
- **Linux/Unix**: existing workflows unaffected
- **Android/iOS**: properly skipped
## Changes
- Update `cmake/OpenCVFindLibsPerf.cmake`
- Replace hardcoded library names with CMake targets
- Add mobile platform guards
- Preserve backward compatibility
Fixes#26592

Add BUILD_INFO_SKIP_SYSTEM_VERSION option to exclude the host kernel version
from build outputs, enabling reproducible builds across systems with different
kernel versions.
Changes:
- Modified CMakeLists.txt to conditionally include CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION
in the build platform status based on BUILD_INFO_SKIP_SYSTEM_VERSION flag
- Updated 3rdparty/tbb/CMakeLists.txt to set TBB_HOST_VERSION conditionally
- Modified 3rdparty/tbb/version_string.ver.cmakein to use the new variable
When BUILD_INFO_SKIP_SYSTEM_VERSION=ON is set, the host system version is
excluded from both the CMake status output and the TBB version strings,
producing identical binaries on equivalent build systems regardless of
kernel version differences.
Default behavior is unchanged (version included) for backward compatibility.

RISC-V/AArch64: disable CPU features detection #25901
This PR is the first step in fixing current issues with NEON/RVV, FP16, BF16 and other CPU features on AArch64 and RISC-V platforms.
On AArch64 and RISC-V platforms we usually have the platform set by default in the toolchain when we compile it or in the cmake toolchain file or in CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS by user. Then, there are two ways to set platform options: a) "-mcpu=<some_cpu>" ; b) "-march=<arch description>" (e.g. "rv64gcv"). Furthermore, there are no similar "levels" of optimizations as for x86_64, instead we have features (RVV, FP16,...) which can be enabled or disabled. So, for example, if a user has "rv64gc" set by the toolchain and we want to enable RVV. Then we need to somehow parse their current feature set and append "v" (vector optimizations) to this string. This task is quite hard and the whole procedure is prone to errors.
I propose to use "CPU_BASELINE=DETECT" by default on AArch64 and RISC-V platforms. And somehow remove other features or make them read-only/detect-only, so that OpenCV wouldn't add any extra "-march" flags to the default configuration. We would rely only on the flags provided by the compiler and cmake toolchain file. We can have some predefined configurations in our cmake toolchain files.
Changes made by this PR:
- `CMakeLists.txt`:
- use `CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING` instead of `CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE` to detect cross-compilation. This might be useful in cases of native compilation with a toolchain file
- removed obsolete variables `ENABLE_NEON` and `ENABLE_VFPV3`, the first one have been turned ON by default on AArch64 platform which caused setting `CPU_BASELINE=NEON`
- raise minimum cmake version allowed to 3.7 to allow using `CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_INIT` in toolchain files
- added separate files with arch flags for native compilation on AArch64 and RISC-V, these files will be used in our toolchain files and in regular cmake
- use `DETECT` as default value for `CPU_BASELINE` also allow `NATIVE`, warn user if other values were used (only for AArch64 and RISC-V)
- for each feature listed in `CPU_DISPATCH` check if corresponding `CPU_${opt}_FLAGS_ON` has been provided, warn user if it is empty (only for AArch64 and RISC-V)
- use `CPU_BASELINE_DISABLE` variable to actually turn off macros responsible for corresponding features even if they are enabled by compiler
- removed Aarch64 feature merge procedure (it didn't support `-mcpu` and built-in `-march`)
- reworked AArch64 and two RISC-V cmake toolchain files (does not affect Android/OSX/iOS/Win):
- use `CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_INIT` to set compiler flags
- use variables `ENABLE_BF16`, `ENABLE_DOTPROD`, `ENABLE_RVV`, `ENABLE_FP16` to control `-march`
- AArch64: removed other compiler and linker flags
- `-fdata-sections`, `-fsigned-char`, `-Wl,--no-undefined`, `-Wl,--gc-sections` - already set by OpenCV
- `-Wa,--noexecstack`, `-Wl,-z,noexecstack`, `-Wl,-z,relro`, `-Wl,-z,now` - can be enabled by OpenCV via `ENABLE_HARDENING`
- `-Wno-psabi` - this option used to disable some warnings on older ARM platforms, shouldn't harm
- ARM: removed same common flags as for AArch64, but left `-mthumb` and `--fix-cortex-a8`, `-z nocopyreloc`

Added flag to GaussianBlur for faster but not bit-exact implementation #25792
Rationale:
Current implementation of GaussianBlur is almost always bit-exact. It helps to get predictable results according platforms, but prohibits most of approximations and optimization tricks.
The patch converts `borderType` parameter to more generic `flags` and introduces `GAUSS_ALLOW_APPROXIMATIONS` flag to allow not bit-exact implementation. With the flag IPP and generic HAL implementation are called first. The flag naming and location is a subject for discussion.
