Chessboard pattern partition search

This commit enables a chessboard pattern constrained partition
search for 720p and above resolutions. The scheme applies stricter
partition search to alternative blocks based on its above/left
neighboring blocks' partition range, as well as that of the
collocated blocks in the previous frame. It is currently turned
on at 16x16 block size level. The chessboard pattern is flipped
per coding frame.

The speed 3 runtime is reduced:
park_joy_1080p, 652832 ms -> 607738 ms (7% speed-up)
pedestrian_area_1080p, 215998 ms -> 200589 ms (8% speed-up)

The compression performance is changed:
hd     -0.223%
stdhd  -0.295%
