Title: Add checkippsupport

Adds a cv::checkIPPSupport() function whit inits IPP and returns true if everything is OK.

But system.cpp still calls ippStaticInit() which apparently is deprecated.

So, perhaps I should convert the IPPInitializer variable to hold the return value of the now recommended ippInit() and expose that publicly instead.
