On key frame, will always start with normal denoising mode,
but based on a computed noise metric (normalized mse on source diff)
may switch to aggressive mode (and back down again).

Adds a new end-usage option for constant quality encoding in vpx. This
first version implemented for VP9, encodes all regular inter frames
using the quality specified in the --cq-level= option, while encoding
all key frames and golden/altref frames at a quality better than that.
The current performance on derfraw300 is +0.910% up from bitrate control,
but achieved without multiple recode loops per frame.
The decision for qp for each altref/golden/key frame will be improved
in subsequent patches based on better use of stats from the first pass.
Further, the qp for regular inter frames may also be varied around the
provided cq-level.

Allows building the library with the gcc -pedantic option, for improved
portabilty. In particular, this commit removes usage of C99/C++ style
single-line comments and dynamic struct initializers. This is a
continuation of the work done in commit 97b766a46, which removed most
of these warnings for decode only builds.

These are warnings in most builds, but show up as compile errors on

When running multi-layer (ML) encodes and dynamically
changing coding parameters on the fly (e.g. frame
duration/rate, bandwidths allocated to each layer)
the encoder would not produce sensible output.
In certain cases the rate targeting would be
hideously inaccurate.
These fixes make it possible to change these coding
parameters correctly and to maintain accurate control
of the rate targeting.
I also added the specification of the input timebase
into the test program, vp8_scalable_patterns.c.
Patch 2: Moved declaration to appease MS compiler)

The example encoder down-samples the input video frames a number of
times with a down-sampling factor, and then encodes and outputs
bitstreams with different resolutions.
Support arbitrary down-sampling factor, and down-sampling factor
can be different for each encoding level.
For example, the encoder can be tested as follows.
1. Configure with multi-resolution encoding enabled:
../libvpx/configure --target=x86-linux-gcc --disable-codecs
--enable-vp8 --enable-runtime_cpu_detect --enable-debug
--disable-install-docs --enable-error-concealment
--enable-multi-res-encoding
2. Run make
3. Encode:
If input video is 1280x720, run:
./vp8_multi_resolution_encoder 1280 720 input.yuv 1.ivf 2.ivf 3.ivf 1
(output: 1.ivf(1280x720); 2.ivf(640x360); 3.ivf(320x180).
The last parameter is set to 1/0 to show/not show PSNR.)
4. Decode:
./simple_decoder 1.ivf 1.yuv
./simple_decoder 2.ivf 2.yuv
./simple_decoder 3.ivf 3.yuv
5. View video:
mplayer 1.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=1280:h=720 -loop 0 -fps 30
mplayer 2.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=640:h=360 -loop 0 -fps 30
mplayer 3.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=320:h=180 -loop 0 -fps 30
The encoding parameters can be modified in vp8_multi_resolution_encoder.c,
for example, target bitrate, frame rate...
Modified API. John helped a lot with that. Thanks!

The calculated frame_rate is a state variable in the codec, and
shouldn't be maintained in the configuration struct. Move it to the
main part of cpi so that it isn't clobbered when the configuration
struct is updated. The initial framerate estimate is moved from the
vp8_cx_iface.c wrapper into the body of init_config() in onyx_if.c, so
that it is only called once and not reset on every call to
vp8_change_config().

Added the ability to create rate-targeted, temporally
scalable, VP8 compatible bitstreams.
The application vp8_scalable_patterns.c demonstrates how
to use this capability. Users can create output bitstreams
containing upto 5 temporally separable streams encoded
as a single VP8 bitstream.

This patch changes the rc_undershoot_pct and rc_overshoot_pct controls
to set the "aggressiveness" of rate adaptation, by limiting the
amount of difference between the target buffer level and the actual
buffer level which is applied to the target frame rate for this frame.
This patch was initially provided by arosenberg at logitech.com as
an attachment to issue #270. It was modified to separate these controls
from the other unrelated modifications in that patch, as well as to
use the pre-existing variables rather than introducing new ones.

The merge includes hooks to for CQ mode and other code
changes merged from the test branch.
CQ mode attempts to maintain a more stable quantizer within a clip
whilst also trying to adhere to a guidline maximum bitrate.
The existing target data rate parameter is used to specify the
guideline maximum bitrate.
A new parameter allows the user to specify a target CQ level.
For normal (non kf/gf/arf) frames, the quantizer will not drop BELOW the
user specified value (0-63). However, in some cases the encoder may
choose to impose a target CQ that is above that specified by the user,
if it estimates that consistent use of the target value is not compatible
with guideline maximum bitrate.

Add a new encoder control, VP8E_SET_TUNING, to allow the application
to inform the encoder that the material will benefit from certain
tuning. Expose this control as the --tune option to vpxenc. The args
helper is expanded to support enumerated arguments by name or value.
Two tunings are provided by this patch, PSNR (default) and SSIM.
Activity masking is made dependent on setting --tune=ssim, as the
current implementation hurts speed (10%) and PSNR (2.7% avg,
10% peak) too much for it to be a default yet.

This renames the vpx_codec/ directory to vpx/, to allow applications
to more consistently reference these includes with the vpx/ prefix.
This allows the includes to be installed in /usr/local/include/vpx
rather than polluting the system includes directory with an
excessive number of includes.
