In the tile-coding experiment,
1. In tile decoder, added 2 set control APIs:
VP10_SET_DECODE_TILE_ROW and VP10_SET_DECODE_TILE_COL. It allowed
users to set the range of decoding at frame level.
2. Added a unit test while tile-coding experiment is on. It tested
both tile encoder and decoder to make sure the encoded frame
can be decoded as a whole frame or as independent tiles.

Tile rows should now be independent, so make pbi->inv_tile_order
invert the decoding order of tile rows as well as tile columns.
This should improve test coverage. Also added more tile configurations
to the tile_independence_tests.

With ext-tile enabled, the encoder test driver needs to configure the
tile sizes wit different values to encode using a single tile, and to
decode all tiles. This should fix most unit test failures.

This is after discussion with the hardware team. Update the unit test
to take these sizes into account. Split out some duplicate code into
a separate file so it can be shared.

This patch adds column-based tiling. The idea is to make each tile
independently decodable (after reading the common frame header) and
also independendly encodable (minus within-frame cost adjustments in
the RD loop) to speed-up hardware & software en/decoders if they used
multi-threading. Column-based tiling has the added advantage (over
other tiling methods) that it minimizes realtime use-case latency,
since all threads can start encoding data as soon as the first SB-row
worth of data is available to the encoder.
There is some test code that does random tile ordering in the decoder,
to confirm that each tile is indeed independently decodable from other
tiles in the same frame. At tile edges, all contexts assume default
values (i.e. 0, 0 motion vector, no coefficients, DC intra4x4 mode),
and motion vector search and ordering do not cross tiles in the same
frame.
t log
Tile independence is not maintained between frames ATM, i.e. tile 0 of
frame 1 is free to use motion vectors that point into any tile of frame
0. We support 1 (i.e. no tiling), 2 or 4 column-tiles.
The loopfilter crosses tile boundaries. I discussed this briefly with Aki
and he says that's OK. An in-loop loopfilter would need to do some sync
between tile threads, but that shouldn't be a big issue.
Resuls: with tiling disabled, we go up slightly because of improved edge
use in the intra4x4 prediction. With 2 tiles, we lose about ~1% on derf,
~0.35% on HD and ~0.55% on STD/HD. With 4 tiles, we lose another ~1.5%
on derf ~0.77% on HD and ~0.85% on STD/HD. Most of this loss is
concentrated in the low-bitrate end of clips, and most of it is because
of the loss of edges at tile boundaries and the resulting loss of intra
predictors.
TODO:
- more tiles (perhaps allow row-based tiling also, and max. 8 tiles)?
- maybe optionally (for EC purposes), motion vectors themselves
should not cross tile edges, or we should emulate such borders as
if they were off-frame, to limit error propagation to within one
tile only. This doesn't have to be the default behaviour but could
be an optional bitstream flag.
