In multi-thread case, the encoder may crash if using encoder option
tile-rows > 0. To prevent that, force tile-rows=0 in this situation.
This is a workaround for WebM issue 1095:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/webm/issues/detail?id=1095
The further fix can be done by adding synchronizations after a tile
row is encoded. But this will hurt multi-threaded encoder performance.
So, it is recommended to use tile-rows=0 while encoding with threads
> 1.

This patch was to fix a reported Hangouts deadlock/freezing issue
in VP8 encoder(issue 27232610). The original encoder loopfilter
synchronization happened in the following frame, which was prone
to causing problems in some complex use cases. This patch simplified
the synchronization logic.
More testing needs to be done.

Allow the encode loop to select from a wider range of Q values
when encoding normal (non arf or kf) frames.
This change is targeted at improving psycho-visual quality in some
easy sections that are currently not getting enough bits.
This is likely to be a little worse from a metrics perspective and may also
have a small impact on encode speed in cases where extra recode
iterations are triggered.
Change-Id: I667eebf33c753bcbcf8b93596467369e5708b889
Adds a second threshold for recodes even on frames where
recode is normally disabled if there is a big rate miss.

This has been ported under ext_partition_types because it is due
to be combined with the coding_unit_size experiment which is
already being ported under ext_partition

Merge the functions that generate prediction by above/left predictors
for the encoder and the decoder.

Decompose choose_tx_size_from_rd into three functions that determine
the transform coding rd at different stages. Besides the original
function, txfm_yrd() calculates the rd for fixed size and type.
choose_tx_size_fix_type() fixes the type and searches for the size.
It can enable other experiments to do restricted tx searches so as to
reduce the impact on speed.
Similar refactoring is done for select_tx_type_yrd() in VAR_TX.
Performance change in baseline is trivial:
0.014/0.001/-0.020 for lowres/midres/hdres.

This allows sharing more code paths with the rest of the code an allows
for easier compatibility with the other experiments.

Makes a set of 16 transforms total, adding all 1D
combinations of ADST and FlipADST, and removng all DST
transforms.
lowres, midres both improve by about 0.1% and hdres by
-0.378% in BDRATE but with fewer transforms that are also
simpler.
Further experiments to continue later.

This buffered ANS coder supports coding the symbols in forward (decode)
order. Rather than windowing or growing the buffer, right now this
coder merely asserts that the buffer will never overflow.
This approach should allow ANS to be used as a drop in replacement for
other entropy coders rather than requiring complicated reversal logic
throughout the codebase.

This commit enables the dynamic motion vector predictor for NEWMV
mode. It allows the codec to select the best motion vector predictor
in a rate-distortion optimization framework for motion vector
residual coding. The compression performance is improved:
lowres 0.14%
midres 0.27%
hdres 0.24%

No notable compression performance changes.
