Extending the value range of tokens allows further experiments on
extending quantizer range. Encoder and decoder were verified to
produce matching reconstructed buffers by tests with forced
quantized value of 1.

- Used three probability approach for temporal context as follows:
P0 - probability of no change if both above and left not changed
P1 - probability of no change if one of above and left has changed
P2 - probability of no change if both above and left have changed
In addition, a 1 bit/frame has been used to decide whether to use temporal context or to encode directly. The cost of using both the schemes is calculated ahead and the temporal_update flag is set if the cost of using temporal context is lower than encoding the segment ids directly.
This approach has given around 20% reduction in cost of bits needed to encode segmentation ids.

This eliminates a large set of warnings exposed by the Mozilla build
system (Use of C++ comments in ISO C90 source, commas at the end of
enum lists, a couple incomplete initializers, and signed/unsigned
comparisons).
It also eliminates many (but not all) of the warnings expose by newer
GCC versions and _FORTIFY_SOURCE (e.g., calling fread and fwrite
without checking the return values).
There are a few spurious warnings left on my system:
../vp8/encoder/encodemb.c:274:9: warning: 'sz' may be used
uninitialized in this function
gcc seems to be unable to figure out that the value shortcut doesn't
change between the two if blocks that test it here.
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5314:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5319:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
This is true, so far as it goes, but it's comparing against an enum, and the C
standard does not mandate that enums be unsigned, so the checks can't be
removed.

On each MB, loopfiltering is done right after MB decoding. This
combines two loops in multi-threaded code into one, which reduces
number of synchronizations to half.
The above-row/left-col data are saved in temp buffers for
next-row/next MB decoding.
Tests on 4-core gLucid machine showed 10% decoder performance
gain with threads=4 (tulip clip). Testing on other platforms
isn't done yet.

-Updates by making use of spatial correlation.
-Checks if the segment_id is same as above or left context and encodes only the update to the map instead of updating individual segment_ids.

Improved the subset block search and fill. (about 3% improvement for
32 bit) Modified/merged the code in order to create
vp8_read_mb_modes_mv which can decode the modes/mvs on a macroblock
level. This will allow the decode loop (in the future) to decode
modes/mvs on a frame, row, or mb level.

Changes 'The VP8 project' to 'The WebM project', for consistency
with other webmproject.org repositories.
Fixes issue #97.

did a test compile with clang and got rid of some warnings that have
been annoying me for a while:

This is the first modification of VP8 multi-thread decoder, which uses
same threads to decode macroblocks and then do loopfiltering for each
frame.
Inspired by Rob Clark, synchronization was done on every 8 macroblocks
instead of every macroblock to reduce lock contention.
Comparing with the original code, this implementation gave about 15%-
20% performance gain while decoding my test clips on a Core2 Quad
platform (Linux).
The work is not done yet.
Test on other platforms are needed.

When the license headers were updated, they accidentally contained
trailing whitespace, so unfortunately we have to touch all the files
again.
