Adds a MO_WARP_ON option that, if True, uses opencv's perspective warp to warp the image such that the four points specified in MO_WARP_INPUT_PTS become located at the points specified in MO_WARP_OUTPUT_PTS.

The points are specified as a list of two-element lists. The points are in clockwise format [bottom-left, top-left, top right, bottom right]. The points are calculated against the 320x240 image (not the source resolution of the camera).

On my 4gb Raspberry Pi 4, this costs about 1% of FPS (from 16.17fps to 15.98fps) -- i.e. the performance cost is negligible.

The reason for this PR is that my street curves within the motion tracking crop area -- so pixel distances within the crop area don't have a consistent relationship to real-world distances in feet/meters/miles. I decided to crop the area to make the distances consistent.

I don't anticipate that this PR is ready to be merged right away, so happy to address any questions.
