Adrian Kretz dd214962a5 Merge pull request #29109 from akretz:fix-issue-23644
Better Durand-Kerner Initialization #29109

While investigating issue #23644, I have found [this paper](https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF01935059) which presents a good initialization for the Durand-Kerner algorithm. Basically the idea is to put the initial points equidistantly on a circle on the complex plane. The radius of the circle is computed as

Note that the $a_i$ coefficients in that paper are reversed compared to OpenCV. That's where the `(n - i)` in the code comes from.

I have implemented just the mean of the $u_i$'s for the sake of simplicity. That's already enough to make the algorithm converge in all cases I have tested. I have used this to test for convergence for many polynomials of order 2 and 4 and coefficients of different magnitudes:

```cpp
TEST(Core_SolvePoly, large_test)
{
    cv::Mat_<float> coefs3(1,3);
    cv::Mat_<float> coefs5(1,5);
    cv::Mat r;
    double prec;
    for (int c0 = -20; c0 <= 20; c0++)
    {
        coefs3.at<float>(0) = c0;
        for (int c1 = -20; c1 <= 20; c1++)
        {
            coefs3.at<float>(1) = c1;
            for (int c2 = -20; c2 <= 20; c2++)
            {
                coefs3.at<float>(2) = c2;
                prec = cv::solvePoly(coefs3, r);
                EXPECT_LE(prec, 1e-6);
            }
        }
    }
    for (int c0 = -10; c0 <= 10; c0++)
    {
        coefs5.at<float>(0) = c0;
        for (int c1 = -10; c1 <= 10; c1++)
        {
            coefs5.at<float>(1) = c1;
            for (int c2 = -10; c2 <= 10; c2++)
            {
                coefs5.at<float>(2) = c2;
                for (int c3 = -10; c3 <= 10; c3++)
                {
                    coefs5.at<float>(3) = c3;
                    for (int c4 = -10; c4 <= 10; c4++)
                    {
                        coefs5.at<float>(4) = c4;
                        prec = cv::solvePoly(coefs5, r);
                        EXPECT_LE(prec, 1e-2);
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
    for (int i = -10; i < 10; i++)
    {
        coefs3.at<float>(0) = pow(2, i);
        for (int j = -10; j < 10; j++)
        {
            coefs3.at<float>(1) = pow(2, j);
            for (int k = -10; k < 10; k++)
            {
                coefs3.at<float>(2) = pow(2, k);
                prec = cv::solvePoly(coefs3, r);
                EXPECT_LE(prec, 1e-6);
            }
        }
    }
}
```

This test passes, but I have not committed it because it runs for a couple of seconds.

This fixes #23644 and replaces #29055. I have checked #29055 and it does not pass the test above. It seems to be optimized to the precise polynomial of #23644.
