The segment feature SEG_LVL_SKIP requires the prediction unit size
to be at least BLOCK_8X8. This commit makes the requirement to be
explicit. This is to prevent future encoder implementations from
making wrong choices.

- Intermediate height was not correct i.e. when block size is 4 and
y_step_q4 is 6. In this case intermediate height was
(4*6) >> 4 = 1 and vertical interpolation needs two source pixels
plus 7 extra pixels for taps.
- Also if the current output block is 16x16 and we are using 4x upscaling
we need only 12 rows after horizontal filtering instead of 16.

Added some code to output normalized rd hit count stats.
In effect this approximates to the average number of rd
operations/tests per pixel for the sequence.
The results are not quite accurate and I have not bothered
to account for partial SB64s at frame edges and for key frames
However they do give some idea of the number of modes /
prediction methods being tested for each pixel across the
different partition sizes. This indicates how much scope their
is for further gains either by reducing the number of partitions
examined or the modes per partition through heuristics.
Patch 3 moved place where count incremented so partial rd
tests that are aborted with INT_MAX return are also counted.
Example numbers for first 50 frames of Akiyo.
Speed 0 ~84.4 rd operations / pixel
Speed 1 ~28.8
Speed 2 ~11.9

The 32x32 quantization process can potentially have the intermediate
stacks over 16-bit range, thereby causing enc/dec mismatch. This commit
fixes this overflow issue in the SSSE3 implementation, as well as the
prototype, of 32x32 quantization.
This fixes issue 607 from webm@googlecode.

The two arrays are typically initialized to INT64_MAX, if they are not
filled with valid values before the addition, the values can overflow
and lead to wrong results.

This patch is a reformatted version of optimizations done by

up to 1.2% performance improvement was seen.

Incorporates a speed feature for fast forward updates of
coefficients. This feature takes 3 values:
0 - use standard 2-loop version
1 - use a 1-loop version
2 - use a 1-loop version with reduced updates
Results: derfraw300 +0.007% (on speed 0) at feature value = 1
-0.160% (on speed 0) at feature value = 2
There is substantial speed up at speeds 2 and above for low
resolution sequences where the entropy updates are a big part
of the overall computations.

In subpel_avg_variance functions, code similar to the following

buffers only have less 8 bytes a line, this caused valgrind error

(In response to Issue 604:
https://code.google.com/p/webm/issues/detail?id=604)
There were bugs in the convolution code for two cases:
1. Where the filter table was assumed to be aligned to a
256 byte boundary. The offset of the pixel in the
source buffer was computed incorrectly.
2. Where no such alignment assumption was made. An
incorrect address for the filter table base was used.
To fix both problems, I now assume that the filter table is
256-byte aligned and modify the pixel offset calculation to
match.
A later patch should remove the restriction that the filter
table is aligned to a 256-byte boundary.
There was also a bug in the ConvolveTest unit test
(convolve_test.cc).
(Bug & initial fix suggestion submitted by Tero Rintaluoma
and Sami Pietilä).

Values now carried over frame to frame.
Change to algorithm for decreasing threshold after
a hit and to max threshold (now based on speed)
Removed some old commented out code relating to
VP8 adaptive thresholds.
The impact of these changes tested on Akiyo (50 frames)
and measured in terms of unit rd hits is as follows:
Speed 0 84.36 -> 84.67
Speed 1 29.48 -> 22.22
Speed 2 11.76 -> 8.21
Speed 3 12.32 -> 7.21
Encode speed impact is broadly in line with these.

Most of the focus so far has been on inter frames.
At high speed settings the key frame is now taking a high %
of the cycles.
This patch puts in some masking to reduce the number
of INTRA modes searched during key frame coding (as already
happens for inter frames) at higher speed settings
TODO: Develop this further with either adaptive rd thresholds
when choosing which intra modes to consider or some other
heuristic.
Impact.
At high speed settings on some clips the key frame was starting
to dominate. In a coding of the first 50 frames of AKIYO at speed
2 limiting the key frame intra modes to DC or TM_PRED resulted in
~30% overall speedup. For Bus the number was lower at ~4-5%.
