Further adjustment of RD behaviour with Q and Zbin.

Following conversations with Tim T (Derf) I ran a large number of
tests comparing the existing polynomial expression with a simpler
^2 variant. Though the polynomial was sometimes a little better at
the extremes of Q it was possible to get close for most clips and
even a little better on some.

This code also changes the way the RD multiplier is calculated
when the ZBIN is extended to use a variant of the same ^2
expression.

I hope that this simpler expression will be easier to tune further
as we expand our test set and consider adjustments based on content.
