textproc/zxing-cpp: update to 1.2.0
There have been nearly 800 commits that touched about 10k lines of code
since the last release.
Here are the highlights/major changes:
- switch to C++-17 (client code can still be compiled with a C++-11 compiler)
- switch to the reimplemented 1D detectors (about 5x faster than old ones in false-positive use case)

- completely new Android wrapper library with CameraX support, integrated build system and demo app
- a lot faster and more capable isPure detection for all 2D codes
- completely new QRCode reader (faster, better support for rotated symbols)
- new BarcodeFormat names (old ones still available but deprecated)
- new ZXingQtCamReader demo app based on QtMultimedia and QtQuick
- reduced false positive rate for UPC/EAN barcodes + improved Add-On symbol handling
- 20% faster ReedSolomon error correcting
- PDF417 is faster and supports flipped symbols
- DataMatrix: added DMRE support
- much improved python wrapper incl. PyPI module for easy pip installation (thanks to antoinehumbert)
- proper ECI handling in all 2D barcodes (thanks to gitlost)
- added Structured Append support for DataMatrix, Aztec and MaxiCode (thanks to gitlost)
Note: The next release will drop support for a number of deprecated
APIs. Please update your code and fix all deprecation warnings now.
