Description

While writing some code that uses text::OCRTesseract, I came across an error trace that led me to think there might be an error in the logic with text::OCRTesseract::run().
This was a runtime error code, while attempting to pass an RBG

The error code:
/home/username/opencv_contrib/modules/text/src/ocr_tesseract.cpp:130: error: (-215) (image.type() CV_8UC1) || (image.type() CV_8UC1) in function run

Notice the two 'or' logic checks are looking for the same type of image, I checked the Documentation and this function should accept an image CV_8UC1 or CV_8UC3. Should this be changed?

First bug report, be nice if my formatting is bad! Thanks ya'll.
