of quantization profiles

Added dq_off_index attribute to mbmi to allow for switching between
dequantization modes.
Reduced number of different dequantization modes from 5 to 3.
Changed dequant_val_nuq to be allow for 3 dequant levels instead of 1.
Fixed lint errors

Use separate token probabilities and counters for non-transform
blocks (pixel domain) . Initial probabilities are trained with screen_content
clips. On screen_content, it improves coding performance by about
2% (from +16.4% to +18.45%).
The initial probabilities are not optimized for natural videos. So it should
not be used for natural videos. Set FOR_SCREEN_CONTENT as 0/1 to specify
whether or not to enable this patch.

This patch allows the prediction residues of tx-skipped blocks
to use probs that are different from regular transfrom
coefficients for token entropy coding. Prediction residues are
assumed as in band 6.
The initial value of probs is obtained with stats from limited
tests. The statistic model for constrained token nodes has not
been optimized. The probs for token extra bits have not been
optimized. These can be future work.
Certain coding improvment is observed:
derflr with all experiments: +6.26% (+0.10%)
screen_content with palette: +22.48% (+1.28%)

This framework allows lower quantization bins to be shrunk down or
expanded to match closer the source distribution (assuming a generalized
gaussian-like central peaky model for the coefficients) in an
entropy-constrained sense. Specifically, the width of the bins 0-4 are
modified as a factor of the nominal quantization step size and from 5
onwards all bins become the same as the nominal quantization step size.
Further, different bin width profiles as well as reconstruction values
can be used based on the coefficient band as well as the quantization step
size divided into 5 ranges.
A small gain currently on derflr of about 0.16% is observed with the
same paraemters for all q values.
Optimizing the parameters based on qstep value is left as a TODO for now.
Results on derflr with all expts on is +6.08% (up from 5.88%).
Experiments are in progress to tune the parameters for different
coefficient bands and quantization step ranges.

The qindex for a segment was not clamped in ABSDATA mode, which may
cause invalid memory access if an ill-formed stream has a negative
value in ABSDATA mode. This commit added clamp to make sure qindex
for a segment always fall into valid range.

VP9_COMMON is the right place to segmentatation struct because it has
global segmentation parameters, not something specific to macroblock
processing.
Change-Id: Ib9ada0c06c253996eb3b5f6cccf6a323fbbba708
Adding segmentation struct to vp9_seg_common.h. Struct members are from
macroblockd and VP9Common structs. Moving segmentation related constants
and enums to vp9_seg_common.h.

Skip Q values between the q.0 mode and a real q of
2.0 as these are not valuable from an RD perspective.

Moving common code from encoder and decoder to vp9_get_qindex function.
Also moving quant-related constants from vp9_onyxc_int.h to
vp9_quant_common.h.

Lower case variable names, code simplification by using already defined
clamp and read_le16 functions.

Support for gyp which doesn't support multiple objects in the same
static library having the same basename.
