Adds a method for determining a fixed size partition based on
variance of a 64x64 SB. This method is added to rtc speed 6.
Also fixes a bug in rtc_use_partition() and includes some
refactoring related to partitioning search, and some cosmetics.
Currently compared to speed 5, the coding efficiency of speed 6
is -19% and that of speed 7 is -55%, in cbr mode.

The optimizer did something funny with the code around
line 1412. Before the call to encode_sb split_dist was
set properly but after it was adjusted and converted to
a negative.

If sf->disable_split_mask is DISABLE_ALL_SPLIT, disable
sf->adaptive_pred_interp_filter to avoid unnecessary operations.

Moves the existing speed 6 to speed 7 and adds an
intermediate level 6 which is roughly in between
speeds 6 and 7 in both speed and coding efficiency.
Also includes some minor fixes/adjustments.

This commit makes a refactoring of the rtc_use_partition. It allows
the encoder to take a preferred block size for non-RD mode decision.
The boundary blocks are handled such that smaller block sizes that
fit in the boundary size will be used instread.
In rtc mode, the coding performance of speed -6 for pedestrian_1080p
goes from
158980 b/f, 38.934 dB, 22721 ms to
159008 b/f, 40.064 dB, 23721 ms.
For rtc set, the speed -6 compression performance is improved by
26%. Still about 2dB behind speed -5 at this point.

In the first coding run of a 64x64 block, check the coding mode
for each 8x8 block. Will need a second annealing stage to decide
the partition size to be encoded.

Run sub-pixel motion search when NEWMV gives lower rate-distortion
cost. This improves coding performance of derf set by 8%, std-hd by
2.2%.

Prior to this commit, both encoder and decoder reset mode/mv info from
previous frame in error resilient mode to ensure bitstreams are able to
decode when there is loss of frame in decoder side. However, this is
not necessary. This commit changed to remove the reset, so encoder can
continue to use mode/mv/partition information from previously encoded
frame without affecting decodeablilty under loss of frame.

In rtc coding mode, the encoder is running non-RD mode decision. It
does not need dual buffer swap as was the case in the RD mode. This
commit initializes the internal buffer pointers outside the block
coding loop for rtc mode.

The functionalities of set_offsets() are subsumed in later
set_partitioning() and rtc_use_partition() functions, hence removed.

This function initializes the predictor buffer pointers and
calculates reference motion vectors. It is only needed in the settings
of inter frame coding. Hence removing it from the key frame coding
branch in rtc_use_partition.

This function is deprecated after the re-design of partition search
that runs big block size, then four-way split, followed by
rectangular block sizes. This commit removes the related functions.

The function rd_pick_reference_frame can be deprecated. Its use was
subsumed by the adaptive motion search control.

In real time encoding, we enable encode_breakout to make encoding
fast. A speed feature "use_encode_breakout" is defined to set
encode_breakout thresholds for different speeds.
However, currently, static_thresh is an encoder option. The encode_
breakout can be turned off if user sets static_thresh=0 specifically.
The rtc set borg test result: (need to set --static_thresh=1)
speed -5, psnr loss -3.543%;
speed -4, psnr loss -2.358%;
speed -3, psnr loss -0.771%.
Encoding speed test:
speed -5, 11% - 60% speedup;
speed -4, 5.5% - 28% speedup;
speed -3, 0.8% - 7% speedup.

Aq 1 only updates segment map on kf and arf and
only uses 3 segments. With these settings AQ1 is
+ for most clips in SSIM but negative in psnr.
However, the penalty in PSNR is much less than
previously.
Old version aq1 average results for std hd
-20.899% psnr, -5.809% SSIM
New version aq1 for std hd
-3.57% psnr, +1.23% SSIM
Aq2 Now uses only 2 segments and rd.
This mode is still slightly negative for most clips on
psnr and SSIM but seems to have a much bigger visual
impact on several problem clips than aq mode 1.
Old results for std hd:
-2.578% psnr, -1.151% SSIM
New results for std hd:
-1.561% psnr, -0.85% SSIM
