For forced key frames in particular this helps to make them
blend better with the surrounding frames where noise tends
to be suppressed by a combination of quantization and alt
ref filtering.
Currently disabled by default under and IFDEF flag pending
wider testing.

For real-time mode, increase variance threshold for 32x32 blocks in
var-based partitioning for resolution >= 720p, so that it is more
likely to stay at 32x32 for high resolution which accelerates the
encoding speed with little/no PSNR drop.
PSNR effect on different speed settings:
speed 8 rtc: 0.02 overall PSNR drop, 0.285% SSIM drop
speed 7 rtc: 0.196% overall PSNR increase, 0.066% SSIM increase
speed 5 rtc_derf: no effect.
Speed up:
gips_motion_WHD, 1mbps: 2.5% faster on speed 7, 2.6% faster on speed8
gips_stat_WHD, 1mbps: 4.6% faster on speed 7, 5.6% faster on speed8

For real-time CBR mode, use model_rd_for_sb_y_large instead of
model_rd_for_sb_y for 32x32 block. In the former model, transform
might be skipped more aggressively in some condtions, which speeds
up encoding time with only a little PSNR/SSIM drop on rtc test set.
No obvious visual quality regression.
PSNR effect on different speed settings:
speed 8 rtc: 0.129% overall PSNR drop, 0.137% SSIM drop

speed 5 rtc_derf: 0.105% overall PSNR drop, 0.095% SSIM drop

gips_motion_WHD, 1mbps: 3.29% faster on speed 7, 2.56% faster on speed8

In vp9_pick_inter_mode(), instead of using
vp9_get_pred_context_switchable_interp(xd) to assign filter_ref,
we use a less strict condition on assigning filter_ref.
This is to reduce the probabily of entering the flow of not
assigning filter_ref and then skipping filter search.

This commit adds an encoder workaround to support better
compatibility with a non-compliant hardware vp9 profile 2 decoder.
The known issue with this decoder is:
The decoder assumes a wrong value, 127 instead of the correct
value of 511 and 2047, for any assumed top-left corner pixel in
UV planes for 10 and 12 bit, respectively. Such assumed
top-left corner pixel is used for INTRA prediction when a real
decoded/reconstructed pixel is not avalable, e.g. when it is
located inside the row above the top row or inside the column
left to the leftest column of a video image.

This commit refactors the trellis coefficient optimization process.
It saves multiplications used to generate the final dequantized
coefficients. It removes two memset operations on quantized
and dequantized coefficient sets. This improves the unit speed
by 10%.
