This patch does 4 things, all of which interact and thus it
woudln't be possible to commit them separately without causing
either quality regressions or assertion failures.
Fate comparison targets don't all reflect improvements in
quality, yet listening tests show substantially improved quality
and stability.
1. Increase SF range utilization.
The spec requires SF delta values to be constrained within the
range -60..60. The previous code was applying that range to
the whole SF array and not only the deltas of consecutive values,
because doing so requires smarter code: zeroing or otherwise
skipping a band may invalidate lots of SF choices.
This patch implements that logic to allow the coders to utilize
the full dynamic range of scalefactors, increasing quality quite
considerably, and fixing delta-SF-related assertion failures,
since now the limitation is enforced rather than asserted.
2. PNS tweaks
The previous modification makes big improvements in twoloop's
efficiency, and every time that happens PNS logic needs to be
tweaked accordingly to avoid it from stepping all over twoloop's
decisions. This patch includes modifications of the sort.
3. Account for lowpass cutoff during PSY analysis
The closer PSY's allocation is to final allocation the better
the quality is, and given these modifications, twoloop is now
very efficient at avoiding holes. Thus, to compute accurate
thresholds, PSY needs to account for the lowpass applied
implicitly during twoloop (by zeroing high bands).
This patch makes twoloop set the cutoff in psymodel's context
the first time it runs, and makes PSY account for it during
threshold computation, making PE and threshold computations
closer to the final allocation and thus achieving better
subjective quality.
4. Tweaks to RC lambda tracking loop in relation to PNS
Without this tweak some corner cases cause quality regressions.
Basically, lambda needs to react faster to overall bitrate
efficiency changes since now PNS can be quite successful in
enforcing maximum bitrates, when PSY allocates too many bits
to the lower bands, suppressing the signals RC logic uses to
lower lambda in those cases and causing aggressive PNS.
This tweak makes PNS much less aggressive, though it can still
use some further tweaks.
Also update MIPS specializations and adjust fuzz
Also in lavc/mips/aacpsy_mips.h: remove trailing whitespace
"Fast seek" uses linear interpolation to find the position of the
requested seek time. For CBR this is more direct than using the
mp3 TOC and bypassing the TOC avoids problems with TOC precision.
(see https://crbug.com/545914#c13)
For VBR, fast seek is not precise, so continue to prefer the TOC
when available (the lesser of two evils).
Also, some re-ordering of the logic in mp3_seek to simplify and
give usetoc=1 precedence over fastseek flag.

As noted in a comment, pe.min in the reference encoder
is centered around current pe. The bit reservoir algo
needs pe.min to be a local minimum, because it can only
account for local PE variations. If it's set to a global
minimum as was being done, bit reservoir logic doesn't
work as efficiently.
This patch tries to forget old minimums and converge to
a local minimum without losing the stability of the
previous solution. Listening tests until now suggest this
solves numerous RC issues.

movenc: Add an API unit test for fragmenting options/calls
Merged-by: Derek Buitenhuis <derek.buitenhuis@gmail.com>
Contrary to the normal fate tests that run via avconv, this tests
nontrivial call sequences that are only doable via the API
(mainly for different corner cases when using the muxer for
segmenting).
The test muxes fake packet data (with extradata that looks
enough like proper data to make the file be viewable with e.g.
boxdumper) and checks the hash of the produced files. The test also
verifies that fragments produced via different call sequences remain
identical (to avoid e.g. updating the output hashes and suddenly
having fragments that used to be identical suddenly diverging), for
fragments written with frag_discont and/or delay_moov.

Similar to testsrc, but using drawutils and therefore
supporting a lot of pixel formats instead of just rgb24.
This allows using it as input for other tests without
requiring a format conversion.
It is also slightly faster than testsrc for some reason.

There were some errors in the calculation as well as an entire
unnecessary loop to find the gain coefficient. Merge the
two loops.
Thanks to @ubitux for the suggestions and testing.
The fate test command line is supposed to serve as an example. It's
nicer to explicitly state the profile rather than setting options
to force it for you.
GCC 3.4 miscompiles it on sunos. Date of release? The second of
August two thousand and five, anno Domini. That's ten years two
months and fourteen days ago. Three thousand seven hundred and
twenty seven days ago. One sixth of the average life expectancy
of a person living in a country with a human development index
of zero point eight hundred and eight, equality adjusted.
GCC 4.3 also miscompiles it, though not as bad.
The LTP encoding and the test is a bit slow currently, taking twice
the amount of time the other tests do, so in the future the
total time to encode might be cut down on that test.
It was useful to (accidentally?) spot an overflow in the column pass

This finalizes merging of the work in the patches in ticket #2686.
Improvements to twoloop and RC logic are extensive.
The non-exhaustive list of twoloop improvments includes:
- Tweaks to distortion limits on the RD optimization phase of twoloop
- Deeper search in twoloop
- PNS information marking to let twoloop decide when to use it
(turned out having the decision made separately wasn't working)
- Tonal band detection and priorization
- Better band energy conservation rules
- Strict hole avoidance
For rate control:
- Use psymodel's bit allocation to allow proper use of the bit
reservoir. Don't work against the bit reservoir by moving lambda
in the opposite direction when psymodel decides to allocate more/less
bits to a frame.
- Retry the encode if the effective rate lies outside a reasonable
margin of psymodel's allocation or the selected ABR.
- Log average lambda at the end. Useful info for everyone, but especially
for tuning of the various encoder constants that relate to lambda
feedback.
Psy:
- Do not apply lowpass with a FIR filter, instead just let the coder
zero bands above the cutoff. The FIR filter induces group delay,
and while zeroing bands causes ripple, it's lost in the quantization
noise.
- Experimental VBR bit allocation code
- Tweak automatic lowpass filter threshold to maximize audio bandwidth
at all bitrates while still providing acceptable, stable quality.
I/S:
- Phase decision fixes. Unrelated to #2686, but the bugs only surfaced
when the merge was finalized. Measure I/S band energy accounting for
phase, and prevent I/S and M/S from being applied both.
PNS:
- Avoid marking short bands with PNS when they're part of a window
group in which there's a large variation of energy from one window
to the next. PNS can't preserve those and the effect is extremely
noticeable.
M/S:
- Implement BMLD protection similar to the specified in
ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Since M/S decision
doesn't conform to section 6.1, a different method had to be
implemented, but should provide equivalent protection.
- Move the decision logic closer to the method specified in
ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Specifically,
make sure M/S needs less bits than dual stereo.
- Don't apply M/S in bands that are using I/S
Now, this of course needed adjustments in the compare targets and
fuzz factors of the AAC encoder's fate tests, but if wondering why
the targets go up (more distortion), consider the previous coder
was using too many bits on LF content (far more than required by
psy), and thus those signals will now be more distorted, not less.
The extra distortion isn't audible though, I carried extensive
ABX testing to make sure.
A very similar patch was also extensively tested by Kamendo2 in
the context of #2686.
