imgproc: speed up getRectSubPix 8U->32F - #30050

### Summary

`getRectSubPix_8u32f`, the 8U-source -> 32F-patch path of `cv::getRectSubPix`, propagated the horizontal interpolation factor across the row:

```cpp
float prev = (1 - a)*(b1*src[0] + b2*src[src_step]);
for (int j = 0; j < win_size.width; j++) {
    float t = a12*src[j+1] + a22*src[j+1+src_step];
    dst[j] = prev + t;
    prev = (float)(t*s);          // loop-carried dependency
}
```

That recurrence is a serial dependency chain running the length of every row, so the loop neither pipelines nor vectorizes. 

| patch size | 8U→32F | 32F→32F |
|---|---|---|
| 128×128 | 31.1 ms | 13.5 ms |

The recurrence is only a strength reduction. The bilinear weights are identical for every output pixel of a patch, so applying the constant 4-tap kernel directly gives the same result. This patch does that and vectorizes the loop with universal intrinsics (`vx_load_expand_q` → `v_cvt_f32` → 4× `v_mul`/`v_add` → `v_store`), keeping a scalar tail. `v_add`/`v_mul` are used instead of operators because the RVV scalable backend defines no operator overloads for its native vector types.

### Performance

SpacemiT K1 (RVV 1.0 / X60), `opencv_perf_imgproc --gtest_filter=*GetRectSubPix*`, `--perf_force_samples=20 --perf_min_samples=20`, `ALGO_HINT_ACCURATE`:

| patch | before | after | speedup |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16×16 | 0.610 ms | 0.308 ms | 1.98× |
| 32×32 | 2.116 ms | 0.843 ms | 2.51× |
| 64×64 | 8.016 ms | 2.822 ms | 2.84× |
| 128×128 | 31.109 ms | 10.369 ms | 3.00× |

The 8U→8U and 32F→32F paths are unchanged (0.99×–1.01×), and the whole `GetRectSubPix` perf suite improves from 81.66 ms to 53.95 ms (1.51×).

### Accuracy

`opencv_test_imgproc --gtest_filter=*GetRectSubPix*` passes on the same build.
