A small gain (0.1 - 0.2%) with this experiment on derflr/hevcmr.
The DST2 can be implemened very efficiently using sign flipping
of odd indexed inputs, followed by DCT, followed by reversal of
the output. This is how it is implemented in this patch.
SIMD optimization is pending.

Adds an additional transform in the ext_tx experiment that
is a 2d DST1-DST1 combination.
To enable use --enable-ext-tx --enable-dst1.
This needs to be later extended to combine DST1 with DCT

Framework for alternate transforms for inter 32x32 and larger based
on dwt-dct hybrid is implemented.
Further experiments are to be condcuted with different
variations of hybrid dct/dwt or plain dwt, as well as super-resolution
mode.

The wavelets implemented are 2/6, 5/3 and 9/7 each with
a lifting based scheme for even block sizes. The 9/7
one is a double implementation currently.
This is to start experiments with:
1. Replacing large transforms (32x32 and 64x64) with wavelets
or wavelet-dct hybrids that can hopefully localize errors better
spatially. (Will also need alternate entropy coder)
2. Super-resolution modes where the higher sub-bands may be
selectively skipped from being conveyed, while a smart
reconstruction recovers the lost frequencies.
The current patch includes two types of 32x32 and 64x64
transforms: one where only wavelets are used, and another
where a single level wavelet decomposition is followed
by a lower resolution dct on the low-low band.

This change is made in preparation for a
subsequent patch which adds acceleration
for the highbitdepth transform functions.
The highbitdepth transform functions attempt
to use 16/32bit sse instructions where possible,
but fallback to using the C implementations if
potential overflow is detected. For this reason
the dct routines are made global so they can be
called from the acceleration functions in the
subsequent patch.

Implements vertical, horizontal, and tm dpcm intra prediction for
blocks in tx_skip mode. Typical coding gain on screen content video
is 2%~5%.
Change-Id: Idd5bd84ac59daa586ec0cd724680cef695981651
This patch improves the non-transform coding mode. At this
point, the coding gain on screen content videos is about
12% for lossless, an 15% for lossy case.
1. Encode tx_skip flags with context. Y tx_skip flag context is
whether the prediction mode is inter or intra. UV flag context
is Y flag.
2. Transform skipping is less helpful when the Q-index is high.
So it is enabled only when the Q-index is smaller than a
threshold. Currently the threshold is set as 255 for intra blocks,
and 0 for inter blocks.
3. The shift of the prediction residue, when copying them to the
coeff buffer, is set as 3 when the Q-index is larger than a
threshold (currently set as 0), and 2 otherwise.

Non-transform option is enabled in both intra and inter modes.

This reverts commit eafc8c9c40d712aabe234bed5269a02c62fa0bfc.
tran_low_t/tran_high_t don't belong in a public header, they're private.
Similarly the public headers shouldn't rely on config defines,
vpx_config.h isn't installed.

This commit fixes a compiling error in vp9_idct.h, where the codec
checks that the intermediate steps of transformation fit within
16-bit length. The issue was due to broken file dependency.
Change-Id: Ib22bba13a1e6df28489cb23d6774c561969f1fdc
Adds various high bitdepth transform functions and tests.
Much of the changes are related to using typedefs tran_low_t
and tran_high_t for the final transform cofficients and intermediate
stages of the transform computation respectively rather than fixed
types int16_t/int. When vp9_highbitdepth configure flag is off,
these map tp int16_t/int32_t, but when the flag is on, they map
to int32_t/int64_t to make space for needed extra precision.

This commit adds a configure time option used to enable strict error
checking in decoder to make sure intermediate stage cofficients of
inverse transforms are within valid range of signed 16 bit integer.
For valid VP9 input streams, intermediate stage coefficients should
always stay within the range of a signed 16 bit integer. Coefficients
can go out of this range for invalid/corrupt VP9 streams. However,
strictly checking this range for every intermediate coefficient can
be a burden for decoder, therefore such validation is only enabled
with configure option --enable-coefficient-range-checking.

This commit enables SSSE3 implementation of the inverse 2D-DCT
with only first 10 coefficients non-zero. It reduces the runtime
of SSE2 version from 745 cycles to 538 cycles, i.e., 27% speed-up.

Separate the rounding and right shift operations of forward transform
from those of inverse transform. Take out the assertion check from
inverse transforms. If the transform coefficients were constructed to
cause intermediate steps of inverse transform overflow, the codec will
just let it overflow without breaking the decoding flow.

The idea is to have the following names for each transform size:
vp9_idct4x4_add
vp9_idct4x4_1_add
vp9_idct4x4_10_add
vp9_idct4x4_16_add
vp9_idct8x8_add
vp9_idct8x8_1_add
vp9_idct8x8_10_add
vp9_idct8x8_64_add
etc for 16x16, 32x32
The actual list of renames in this patch:
vp9_idct_add_lossless -> vp9_iwht4x4_add
vp9_short_iwalsh4x4_add -> vp9_iwht4x4_16_add
vp9_short_iwalsh4x4_1_add -> vp9_iwht4x4_1_add
vp9_idct_add -> vp9_idct4x4_add
vp9_short_idct4x4_add -> vp9_idct4x4_16_add
vp9_short_idct4x4_1_add -> vp9_idct4x4_1_add

Enable SSE2 implementation of high precision 32x32 forward DCT. The
intermediate stacks are of 32-bits. The run-time goes down from

This commit makes use of dual fdct32x32 versions for rate-distortion
optimization loop and encoding process, respectively. The one for
rd loop requires only 16 bits precision for intermediate steps.
The original fdct32x32 that allows higher intermediate precision (18
bits) was retained for the encoding process only.
This allows speed-up for fdct32x32 in the rd loop. No performance
loss observed.

Wrote sse2 functions of vp9_short_idct8x8 and vp9_short_idct10_8x8.
Compared to c version, the sse2 version is 2X faster. The decoder
test didn't show noticeable gain since 8x8 idct doesn't take much
of decoding time (less than 1% in my test).

Fixing code style, using array lookup instead of switch statements for

Wrote SSE2 version of vp9_dc_only_idct_add_c function. In order to
improve performance, clipped the absolute diff values to [0, 255].
This allowed us to keep the additions/subtractions in 8 bits.

The commit improves the 32x32 forward dct implementation:
1. change to use same constants and rounding as other forward dcts
2. select rounding to specifically minimize the roundtrip error, which
improved average 19/block to .77/block using 100000 random input.
Test showed a small but consistent gain on all test sets, about .15%
