More use of AutoBuffer #28907
When possible, AutoBuffer should be faster than std::vector<>, and should not be worse if it requires a heap allocation rather than a stack allocation.

The existing 2-pass cross-check implementation requires both forward and
reverse distance computations on GPU, followed by CPU-side filtering.
This adds a single-pass kernel using int64 atomics to eliminate the
reverse pass. The BruteForceMatch_CrossCheckMatch kernel performs forward
matching and tracks best train->query mappings in one GPU pass, reducing
memory transfers. Falls back to 2-pass approach on devices without
cl_khr_int64_base_atomics extension.
Tested on NVIDIA RTX 5060 Ti: 1.65x-1.97x faster than 2-pass GPU,
3.49x-7.33x faster than CPU at 640x480 to 1920x1080 resolutions.
BFMatcher::match() with crossCheck=true previously skipped the OCL
dispatch in knnMatchImpl entirely, falling back to CPU even when UMat
inputs and an OpenCL device were available. This adds
ocl_matchWithCrossCheck() for CV_32FC1 descriptors (e.g. SIFT, SURF):
both the forward and reverse nearest-neighbour passes run on the GPU
via the existing ocl_matchSingle() kernel, then the cross-check filter
runs on the CPU. Only two small index arrays (1×N ints) are downloaded
— the O(N²×D) distance work stays on the device.
The OCL dispatch in knnMatchImpl is also refactored to unify the
Mat/UMat train collection selection before branching on crossCheck.
On a NVIDIA RTX 3060 with SIFT descriptors the OCL path is 6–9×
faster than CPU at 2k–10k features per image. Binary descriptors
(ORB, BRIEF — CV_8U) are unaffected; the existing type guard in
ocl_matchSingle keeps them on the CPU path as before.
Also adds a correctness test (Features2d_BFMatcher_CrossCheck) and an
OCL perf test (BruteForceMatcherFixture/MatchCrossCheck).
features2d: add missing KAZE DIFF_CHARBONNIER support #28324
### Description
This PR fixes the missing implementation for `DIFF_CHARBONNIER` diffusivity type in KAZE feature detector.
### Changes
- Added `charbonnier_diffusivity()` call for `DIFF_CHARBONNIER` type in `Create_Nonlinear_Scale_Space()`
- Added proper error handling for unsupported diffusivity types
### Problem
When using KAZE with `DIFF_CHARBONNIER` diffusivity type, keypoint coordinates were not computed at subpixel level, because the code lacked the specific handling for this diffusivity mode.
### Solution
The `charbonnier_diffusivity()` function already exists in `nldiffusion_functions.cpp`, it just wasn't being called. This PR adds the missing `else if` branch to call it, matching the pattern already implemented in `AKAZEFeatures.cpp`.
Fixes#27134

The pointer offset to move from top-right to bottom-right was incorrect. This change corrects the pointer calculation to use the proper row stride, ensuring it lands on the correct pixel.
stitching: enable loop unrolling in fast.cpp to improve ARM64 performance #27642

- [x] The PR is proposed to the proper branch
- This PR introduces an ARM64-specific performance optimization in the FAST_t function by applying loop unrolling.
- The optimization is guarded with #if defined(_M_ARM64) to ensure it only affects ARM64 builds.
- This optimizations lead to performance improvements in stitching module functions.
**Performance Improvements:**
- This change significantly improved the performance on Windows ARM64 targets.

features2d: performance optimization of detect function on Windows-ARM64 #27776

- [x] The PR is proposed to the proper branch
- This PR improves the performance of the detect function on Windows ARM64 targets.
- Added the defined(_M_ARM64) macro in agast.cpp and agast_score.cpp files, aligning ARM64 behavior with how x64 selects internal functions for computation.
- As a result, ARM64 now executes the same internal functions as x64 where applicable, leading to measurable performance improvements in detect function.
- This changes is limited to Windows ARM64 and does not affect other architectures
**Performance impact:**
- Detect function shows improved runtime on ARM64 targets due to reuse of existing efficient computation paths.

Rewrite Universal Intrinsic code: features2d and calib3d module. #24301
The goal of this series of PRs is to modify the SIMD code blocks guarded by CV_SIMD macro: rewrite them by using the new Universal Intrinsic API.
This is the modification to the features2d module and calib3d module.
Test with clang 16 and QEMU v7.0.0. `AP3P.ctheta1p_nan_23607` failed beacuse of a small calculation error. But this patch does not touch the relevant code, and this error always reproduce on QEMU, regardless of whether the patch is applied or not. I think we can ignore it
