OpenCV for UWP libraries are abandoned

[oleksandr-bilyk]

Here you are using "OpenCV.Win.Core" and other nuggets last published in 2016 year and their Project URL is abandoned: https://github.com/cvwin/cvwin
There are problems with all MSDN articles about UWP + 'C++/CX' + OpenCV.
Look at related issues below:

1. ""OpenCVExample/CPP" sample depends on abandoned "Microsoft/opencv" repository" - "OpenCVExample/CPP" sample depends on abandoned "Microsoft/opencv" repository microsoft/Windows-iotcore-samples#119
2. "Microsoft you should support OpenCV!!!" - Microsoft you should support OpenCV!!! microsoft/opencv#82
3. "VS Git clone doesnt' download nested folders" - https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/content/problem/214893/vs-git-clone-doesnt-download-nested-folders.html

I've updated the page to reflect that the packages are out of date, but still available. The current guidance for this scenario is to continue using the OpenCV.Win.x packages to create an OpenCV helper.

Updates will be published tomorrow. Thanks for pointing this out!
