opencv 2.0.0 soname change

Branches affected: F-13 and devel


Since OpenCV has deleted few weeks ago the autotools based build system,
we will switch to cmake :
https://code.ros.org/trac/opencv/changeset/2528


The main issue is that the two build system set two different sonames
(2.0.0 for cmake, 4.0.0 for autotools). OpenCV 2.0 is present in Fedora
since F-13 (which has not been released) and OpenCV folks have settled
the issue by ditching autotools based build system.

This allows us to follow more closely upstream (which i hope will be
more careful about soname issue) and should avoid us soname issue in
stable release. It must be fixed before F-13 release.
