Subject: [PATCH 1/4] Implement OpenVX streaming extension (graph pipelining
 streaming API)

Adds support for vxEnableGraphStreaming, vxStartGraphStreaming and
vxStopGraphStreaming to the OpenVX 1.3.2 sample implementation.

Implementation details:
- Adds streaming state fields to vx_kernel_t, vx_node_t and vx_graph_t.
- Supports VX_KERNEL_PIPEUP_OUTPUT_DEPTH / VX_KERNEL_PIPEUP_INPUT_DEPTH
  kernel attributes and VX_NODE_STATE node queries.
- Introduces a background worker thread for streaming that repeatedly calls
  vxProcessGraph until requested to stop.
- For non-streaming vxProcessGraph, performs internal pipeup warm-up
  iterations while any node is still in pipeup state, then one steady
  iteration, matching the behaviour expected by the conformance suite.
- Skips downstream nodes whose producer is still in pipeup state so that
  only valid steady-state outputs are consumed.
- Resets node execution counters when streaming starts so kernels observe
  the pipeup-to-steady transition each session.
- Allows user kernels without a validate callback (required by the
  streaming conformance tests) and guards optional validate_input/
  validate_output calls during graph verification.
- Derives scalar meta type from the actual output object when no output
  validator is provided.

Streaming extension conformance (GraphStreaming.*): 24/24 tests pass.

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] docs+ci: document supported extensions and require all
 conformance jobs to pass

- README.md: list Pipelining and Streaming as supported extensions. Note
  that Event Queue remains a stub. Update conformance Mode 7/8 notes and
  CI description to reflect that Streaming is now required to pass.
- BUILD_DEFINES: note that Pipelining and Streaming are functional
  implementations.
- .github/workflows/ci.yml: remove continue-on-error from the Streaming
  job and all other conformance test jobs so the full suite is required to
  pass. Rename the Streaming job and remove the warning-only echo.

 ### GitHub Actions
 
-The GitHub Actions workflow (`.github/workflows/ci.yml`) runs on every pull request and on pushes to all branches. It defines a `build` job (Release + Debug) plus one job per conformance test mode; each job checks out the repository with submodules, builds the sample implementation, then builds and runs the CTS. The Streaming job is marked `continue-on-error: true` so it surfaces as a warning rather than failing the pipeline.

 ### GitLab CI
 
-The GitLab CI pipeline (`.gitlab-ci.yml`) uses the `ubuntu:22.04` image with a `build` stage and a `test` stage covering the same 8 conformance modes. Submodules are fetched via `GIT_SUBMODULE_STRATEGY: recursive`, and the Streaming job uses `allow_failure: true`.

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] ci: enable Git LFS checkout and remove remaining test
 exceptions

- .github/workflows/ci.yml:
  - Enable Git LFS checkout in both build jobs so large CTS test data
    (including AlexNet weights) is pulled.
  - Install git-lfs in the runner and add a quick verification step.
  - Remove the TensorNetworks.AlexNetTestNetwork exclusion from the
    Neural Networks job now that the weights are available via LFS.
  - Raise the neural-networks timeout to 1200s to account for the
    additional AlexNet test.

- README.md:
  - Added a note under the conformance setup section that Git LFS is
    required for the cts/test_data/ files.

updates including stale-output detection for Laplacian pyramid
