enable qt opengl

[drzraf]

Expected behaviour

I should be able to create OpenGL-enabled window.

Actual behaviour

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
cv2.error: OpenCV(3.4.3) /io/opencv/modules/highgui/src/window_QT.cpp:1665: error: (-218:No OpenGL support) Library was built without OpenGL support in function 'CvWindow'

Steps to reproduce

import cv2
print(cv2.getBuildInformation())
cv2.namedWindow('calibration mask', cv2.WINDOW_NORMAL | cv2.WINDOW_OPENGL)

There's no OpenGL installed in the CentOS 5 environment where the Qt has been built. There might be some old Mesa implementation available for the CentOS 5. After that a full rebuild of Qt is required. Anyway, enabling OpenGL support requires a lot of testing and tinkering to confirm that it is possible and does not break anything. Adding new dependencies is risky because these packages have to compatible with any GNU/Linux system out there.

It says that mesa 6.5.1 supports CentOS 5 but it is "too old to work with the new OpenGL backend", whatever that means.

@skvark You could do another binaries let say opencv-python-gl and test it with other users and see how it goes, without break the old ones.
