Chessboard pattern prediction filter type search in non-RD coding

This commit introduces a chessboard pattern search for the prediction
filter type search. It runs extensive search in alternate blocks and
allows the rest blocks to refer coding decisions of their nearby
neighbors.

For pedestrian 1080p at 4000 kbps, the runtime of speed -5 goes down
from 43990 ms to 42200 ms. The overall compression performance for
RTC set is changed by -1.37%.
