Reformatted version of a patch submitted by Erik/Tamar
from Intel. For the test clips used, the decoder
performance improved by ~2%.

Propose some changes to the speed 2 settings to improve quality.
In particular, turns off the adjust_thresholds_by_speed feature
which improves results by 6%. Also removes the code for
adjust_thresholds_by_speed since it conflicts with the adaptive
rd thresh feature.
Overall, with this change speed 2 is -15.2% from speed 0 settings,
on derf, which is significantly better than -21.6% down before.

The c code implementation of 32x32 quantization does the zbin check
of all coefficients prior to the quant/dequant loop, hence removing
the redundant zbin check inside the loop. This only affects the
c code version. SSSE3 version does not separate the zbin check out.

Added the resize_test unit test to the VP9 set.
Set g_in_frames = 0 to avoid a problem when the total
number of frames being encoded is smaller than
g_in_frames. In this case the test will not have
access to the encoded frames and will not be able to
compare them for testing for encoder/decoder mismatch.

If the current obtained distortion is very small, which happens
for static image case, we pick the current partition type without
further split checking.
This won't affect regular videos. For static videos, we got 10%~12%
encoding speed gain. PSNR was better for some clips, and worse for
others. Overall it was even.

Thank Paul for the suggestions. While turning on static-thresh
for static-image videos, a big jump on bitrate was seen. In this
patch, we detected static frames in the video using first-pass
stats. For different cases, disable encode breakout or reduce
encode breakout threshold to limit the skipping.
More modification need be done to break incorrect partition
picking pattern for static frames while skipping happens.

A previous speed feature skipped modes not used in earlier
partitions but this not longer worked as intended following
changes to the partition coding order and in conjunction
with some other speed features (Especially speed 2 and above).
This modified mode skip feature sets a mask after the first X
modes have been tested in each partition depending on the
reference frame of the current best case.
This patch also makes some changes to the order modes are
tested to fit better with this skip functionality.
Initial testing suggests speed and rd hit count improvements
of up to 20% at speed 1. Quality results. (derf -1.9%, std hd +0.23%).

This commit completes the per coefficient accuracy check and memory
overflow check for SSE2 and other implemented versions of 16x16
transform.
Change-Id: If26a3e4f6ba82ccecc13f0b73cb8f7bb6ac14584
This commit refactors the 16x16 transform unit test. It enables the
test on all implemented versions of forward and inverse 16x16 transform
modules.

The commit changes the border pixel extension from 160 pixel each side
to what is necessary in arnr filter or motion estimation portion, i.e.
16 pixel on top and left side. For right or bottom side, the extension
is changed to either round up image size to multiple of 64 or at least
16 pixels.

The 16x16 transform unit test suggested that the peak coefficient
value can reach 32639. This could cause potential overflow issue
in the SSSE3 implmentation of 16x16 block quantization. This commit
fixes this issue by replacing addition with saturated addition.

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.

mode_info_context was stored as a grid of MODE_INFO structs.
The grid now constists of a pointer to a MODE_INFO struct and
a "in the image" flag. The MODE_INFO structs are now stored
as a stream, eliminating unnecessary copies and is a little
more cache friendly.
For the test clips used, the decoder performance improved
by ~4.3% (1080p) and ~9.7% (720p).
Patch Set 2: Re-encoded clips with latest. Now ~1.7% (1080p)
and 5.9% (720p).
