Substantial reworking of the speed vs quality trade offs for
speed 1 and 2.
In this patch I am attempting to freeze the "quality" meaning of
speeds 1 and 2 relative to speed 0 so that in future we can
better evaluate progress.
I am targeting :
Speed 1 quality ~-5% vs speed 0.
Speed 2 quality ~-10% vs speed 0
It is inevitable that quality will still fluctuate a little as we adjust
settings and add new features, but we will attempt to keep as
close as possible to these values. Above speed 2 things will remain
a bit more fluid for now.
In this patch speed 1 is approximately 4-5x as fast as speed 0. This
is similar to before but the quality hit is a lot less. Likewise speed 2
is approximately 2x as fast as speed 1 but is similar in quality to the
previous speed 1 configuration.
Also slight change to behavior of FLAG_EARLY_TERMINATE to insure
all reference frames get at least one rd test. Important for very low
variance regions.

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.

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%.

Check the minimum rate-distortion cost of regular quantization and
all zero coeffs cases in the sub8x8 inter prediction rd loop for
luma components. Use this as the cumulative rdcost sent to UV rd
estimation.

Cleans up the switchable filter search logic. Also adds a
speed feature - a variance threshold - to disable filter search
if source variance is lower than this value.
Results: derfraw300
threshold = 16, psnr -0.238%, 4-5% speedup (tested on football)
threshold = 32, psnr -0.381%, 8-9% speedup (tested on football)
threshold = 64, psnr -0.611%, 12-13% speedup (tested on football)
threshold = 96, psnr -0.804%, 16-17% speedup (tested on football)
Based on these results, the threshold is chosen as 16 for speed 1,
32 for speed 2, 64 for speed 3 and 96 for speed 4.

This commit enables early termination in the rate-distortion
optimization search loop for chroma components. When the cumulative
rd cost is above the current best value, skip the rest per-block
transform/quantization/coeff_cost and continue to the next
prediction mode.
For bus_cif at 2000 kbps, the average run-time goes down from
168546ms -> 164678ms, (2% speed-up) at speed 0
36197ms -> 34465ms, (4% speed-up) at speed 1

Updating all foreach_transformed_block_visitor functions to work with
plane block size instead of general block. Removing a lot of duplicated
code.

This change set is intermediate. The next one will remove all repetitive
plane_bsize calculations, because it will be passed as argument to
foreach_transformed_block_visitor.

Return the distortion value in vp9_rd_pick_intra_mode_sb as sum of
dist_y and dist_uv. Remove the right shift operation on dist_uv,
and make it consistent with that of vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sb.

This commit makes the rate-distortion optimization search of chroma

codes.

VP9_COMMON is the right place to segmentatation struct because it has
global segmentation parameters, not something specific to macroblock
processing.

This commit unifies the rate-distortion cost calculation process of
luma and chroma components. It allows early termination to be enabled
later in the rd search loop of chroma components, in consistent with
luma pixels.

The macro block mode info context originally contained an
entry for each 16x16 macroblock. In VP9 each entry refers
to an 8x8 region not a macro block, so the naming is misleading.
This first stage clean up changes the names of 3 entries in the
structure to remove the mb_ prefix.
TODO clean up the nomenclature more widely in respect of
mbmi and bmi.

Change-Id: Iffdf0ac2e49ac481c27dc27c87fa546d4167bb28
Adds a new subpel motion estimation function that uses a 2-level
tree-structured decision tree to eliminate redundant computations.
It searches fewer points than iterative search (which can search
the same point multiple times) but has the same quality roughly.
This is made the default setting at speeds 0 and 1, while at
speed 2 and above only a 1-level search is used.
Also includes various cleanups for consistency and redundancy removal.
Results:
derf: +0.012% psnr
stdhd: +0.09% psnr
Speedup of about 2-3%

Removing the old one bsize_from_dim_lookup. Now we have a way to determine
block size for plane using its subsampling values (ss_size_lookup). And
then we can find the number of pixels in the block (num_pels_log2_lookup).

Removes some unused code and speed features, and organizes the
interfaces for fractional mv step functions for use in new speed
features to come.
In the process a new speed feature - number of iterations per
step during the subpel search - is exposed.
No change when this parameter is set as the original value of 3.
Results:
subpel_iters_per_step = 3: baseline
subpel_iters_per_step = 2: psnr -0.067%, 1% speedup
subpel_iters_per_step = 1: psnr -0.331%, 3-4% speedup

Adds a few pattern searches to achieve various tradeoffs
between motion estimation complexity and performance.
The search framework is unified across these searches so that a
common pattern search function is used for all. Besides it will
be easier to experiment with various patterns or combinations
thereof at different scales in the future.
The new pattern search is multi-scale and is capable of using
different patterns at different scales.
The new hex search uses 8 points at the smallest scale
and 6 points at other scales.
Two other pattern searches - big-diamond and square are
also added. Big diamond uses 4 points at the smallest scale and
8 points in diamond shape at the larger scales.
Square is very similar conceptually to the default n-step search
but is somewhat faster since it keeps only one survivor across
all scales.
Psnr/speed-up results on derf300:
hex: -1.6% psnr%, 6-8% speed-up
big-diamond: -0.96% psnr, 4-5% speedup
square: -0.93% psnr, 4-5% speedup

There was no benefit having this function. For example, inside
read_switchable_filter_type switchable filter context was calculated twice.

Adds a speed feature to skip all intra modes other than
DC_PRED if the source variance is small. This feature is
made part of speed 1 and up.
Results on derf300: psnr -0.07%, speedup about 1-2%
Also uses the source variance to fine-tune the early
termination criteria when FLAG_EARLY_TERMINATE is on.
This feature is made part of speed 2 and up.
Results on derf300: psnr -0.52%, speedup about 5-7%

This changeset allows to remove vp9_switchable_interp and
vp9_switchable_interp_map arrays and make code much clear. Actually we
still have to use these mapping but only inside read_interp_filter_type and
write_interp_filter_type functions.
