Jonas Perolini 2bca09a191 Merge pull request #23190 from JonasPerolini:pr-output-marker-score
Include pixel-based confidence in ArUco marker detection #23190

The aim of this pull request is to compute a **pixel-based confidence** of the marker detection. The confidence [0;1] is defined as the percentage of correctly detected pixels, with 1 describing a pixel perfect detection. Currently it is possible to get the normalized Hamming distance between the detected marker and the dictionary ground truth [Dictionary::getDistanceToId()](https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/objdetect/src/aruco/aruco_dictionary.cpp#L114) However, this distance is based on the extracted bits and we lose information in the [majority count step](https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/objdetect/src/aruco/aruco_detector.cpp#L487). For example, even if each cell has 49% incorrect pixels, we still obtain a perfect Hamming distance.

**Implementation tests**: Generate 36 synthetic images containing 4 markers each (with different ids) so a total of 144 markers. Invert a given percentage of pixels in each cell of the marker to simulate uncertain detection. Assuming a perfect detection, define the ground truth uncertainty as the percentage of inverted pixels. The test is passed if `abs(computedConfidece - groundTruthConfidence) < 0.05` where `0.05` accounts for minor detection inaccuracies.

- Performed for both regular and inverted markers
- Included perspective-distorted markers
- Markers in all 4 possible rotations [0, 90, 180, 270]
- Different set of detection params:
    - `perspectiveRemovePixelPerCell`
    - `perspectiveRemoveIgnoredMarginPerCell`
    - `markerBorderBits`

![TestCases](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/1113abd3-ff7a-45c8-8b4b-a9d2182eda82)


The code properly builds locally and `opencv_test_objdetect` and `opencv_test_core` passed. Please let me know if there are any further modifications needed. 

Thanks!


I've also pushed minor unrelated improvement (let me know if you want a separate PR) in the [bit extraction method](https://github.com/opencv/opencv/blob/4.x/modules/objdetect/src/aruco/aruco_detector.cpp#L435). `CV_Assert(perspectiveRemoveIgnoredMarginPerCell <=1)` should be `< 0.5`. Since there are margins on both sides of the cell, the margins must be smaller than half of the cell. When setting `perspectiveRemoveIgnoredMarginPerCell >= 0.5`, `opencv_test_objdetect` fails. Note: 0.499 is ok because `int()` will floor the result, thus `cellMarginPixels = int(cellMarginRate * cellSize)` will be smaller than `cellSize / 2`
