For the experiment of EXT_REFS, removed the previous special handling
on the new last 3 references, i.e. LAST2_FRAME, LAST3_FRAME, and
LAST4_FRAME, at the decoder, so that these new last references are
treated the same way as the other 3 references (LAST_FRAME,
GOLDEN_FRAME, and ALTREF_FRAME). Encoder changes have been made
accordingly to realize this flexibility.

The DST2 is implemented by input alternate sign-flip, followed
by DCT, followed by output reversal.
Results are roughly the same, but it should be easier to optimize
the DST2.
[Interestingly a mtrix multuiply implementation is about 0.1%
better].

For testing implemented a fixed pattern and delta, 1 pass,
fixed Q, low delay mode.
This has not in any way been tuned or optimized.

The one pass VBR mode selects a Q range based on a
moving average of recent Q values. This calculation
should have been excluding arf overlay frames as these
are usually coded at the highest allowed value. Their
inclusion skews the average and can cause it to drift
upwards even when the clip as a whole is undershooting.
As such it can undermine correct adaptation of the allowed
Q range especially for easy content.

The culprit is on the decode side xd->lossless[i] setup was in wrong
location where segment features are not yet decoded.
Also on the encoder side, transform mode was not set consistently
between when tx_mode is selected and how tx_mode is enforced in
tx size selection.

This commit allows the codec to analyze the reference motion vector

This commit re-works the entropy coding scheme of the motion
compensated prediction modes. It allows more flexible hyperplane
partition for precise classification.

The 8bit temporal filter has changed to use non-local means.
This fix adds the same change into the high bitdepth code.

This change has been imported from VP9 and
alters the nature and use of exhaustive motion search.
Firstly any exhaustive search is preceded by a normal step search.
The exhaustive search is only carried out if the distortion resulting
from the step search is above a threshold value.
Secondly the simple +/- 64 exhaustive search is replaced by a
multi stage mesh based search where each stage has a range
and step/interval size. Subsequent stages use the best position from
the previous stage as the center of the search but use a reduced range
and interval size.
For example:
stage 1: Range +/- 64 interval 4
stage 2: Range +/- 32 interval 2
stage 3: Range +/- 15 interval 1
This process, especially when it follows on from a normal step
search, has shown itself to be almost as effective as a full range
exhaustive search with step 1 but greatly lowers the computational
complexity such that it can be used in some cases for speeds 0-2.
This patch also removes a double exhaustive search for sub 8x8 blocks
which also contained a bug (the two searches used different distortion
metrics).
For best quality in my test animation sequence this patch has almost
no impact on quality but improves encode speed by more than 5X.
Restricted use in good quality speeds 0-2 yields significant quality gains
on the animation test of 0.2 - 0.5 db with only a small impact on encode
speed. On most natural video clips, however, where the step search
is performing well, the quality gain and speed impact are small.

The range_check is not used because the bit range
in fdct# is not correct. Since we are going to merge in a new version
of fdct# from nextgenv2, we won't fix the incorrect bit range now.

Estimate angle histogram using gradient analysis, then skip those
angles that are unlikely to be chosen.
On ext-intra experiment, turning off filter-intra modes:
for all-key-frame setting, computation overhead is reduced
by about 40%, coding gain dropped from +2.08% to +1.96% (derflr);
with kf-max-dist=150, computation overhead is reduced
by about 60%, coding gain dropped from +0.58% to +0.49% (derflr).
