Fixes #186
What happened?
In the jump from opencv 2.x to opencv 4.x, CvCapture was replaced by IVideoCapture as the input provider. In opencv 2.x, for example, reads were done like this. In opencv 4.x, it now uses IVideoCapture, as is visible here. This change applies to practically everything, which is why setting cap as libwallaby's VideoCapture_K used to do is no longer sufficient. Instead, we must set icap to a LegacyCapture (a child class of IVideoCapture) that acts as a wrapper for CvCapture. With this change, everything works again!
