add tests for chessboard corner detection

[yakir12]

This is my first PR in hopes to add a full test-suit for the opencv camera calibration functions. My secret motive is that I've found that OpenCV.calibrateCamera randomly fails (i.e. return nonsensical values), and I hope to unearth the issue together with the maintainers of this repo.

Super weird. I noticed that just chess5.png was failing, and that it was first in the list... So I tried running the detection once without comparing its results to the saved coordinates of the corners, and now it works. It's as if there is a need for some initialization for it to work properly...?

Thanks for the PR! It mostly looks good. I've left a few code comments, but one overall comment:

together with the maintainers of this repo

This repo has no maintainers. There are people like me who have merge privileges via JuliaImages, but I don't know or use OpenCV. It would be great if this package got a real maintainer.

I don't know how to fix the "must be initialized" bug, sadly.

[yakir12]

I agree and understand. I'm not even sure there's any need to know much about OpenCV to fix this. As I've noticed elsewhere, opencv via PythonCall works just fine, so it seems like something in the porting of opencv to Julia went a little off. My goal is to add a bunch of tests to this module that might highlight and insulate the issues in hand so that it'll be easier for anyone to resolve the issue. The main one being this row.
