Creates a merge between the master and experimental branches. Fixes a
number of conflicts in the build system to allow *either* VP8 or VP9
to be built. Specifically either:
$ configure --disable-vp9 $ configure --disable-vp8
--disable-unit-tests
VP9 still exports its symbols and files as VP8, so that will be
resolved in the next commit.
Unit tests are broken in VP9, but this isn't a new issue. They are
fixed upstream on origin/experimental as of this writing, but rebasing
this merge proved difficult, so will tackle that in a second merge
commit.

For non-static functions, change the prefix to vp9_. For static functions,
remove the prefix. Also fix some comments, remove unused code or unused
function prototypes.

The denoiser function was modified to reduce the computational
complexity.
1. The denoiser c function modification:
The original implementation calculated pixel's filter_coefficient
based on the pixel value difference between current raw frame and last
denoised raw frame, and stored them in lookup tables. For each pixel c,
find its coefficient using
filter_coefficient[c] = LUT[abs_diff[c]];
and then apply filtering operation for the pixel.
The denoising filter costed about 12% of encoding time when it was
turned on, and half of the time was spent on finding coefficients in
lookup tables. In order to simplify the process, a short cut was taken.
The pixel adjustments vs. pixel diff value were calculated ahead of time.
adjustment = filtered_value - current_raw
= (filter_coefficient * diff + 128) >> 8
The adjustment vs. diff curve becomes flat very quick when diff increases.
This allowed us to use only several levels to get a close approximation
of the curve. Following the denoiser algorithm, the adjustments are
further modified according to how big the motion magnitude is.
2. The sse2 function was rewritten.
This change made denoiser filter function 3x faster, and improved the
encoder performance by 7% ~ 10% with the denoiser on.

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.

Compares the sum of differences between the input block and the averaged
block. If they differ too much the block will not be filtered. Negligible

Add PRIVATE macro for adding private_extern directive for yasm

Deprecate fast quant and strict_quant code.
Small effect on quality as fast was used in first pass but the
effect is basically neutral across the derf set.
The rationale here is to reduce the number of code paths for
now to make experimentation easier. Optimized and fast code
options can be re-introduced later along with other encode
speed options.

This is the initial patch for supporting 1/8th pel
motion. Currently if we configure with enable-high-precision-mv,
all motion vectors would default to 1/8 pel. Encode and
decode syncs fine with the current code. In the next phase
the code will be refactored so that we can choose the 1/8
pel mode adaptively at a frame/segment/mb level.
Derf results:
http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterp_hpmv.html
(about 0.83% better than 8-tap interpoaltion)
Patch 3: Rebased. Also adding 1/16th pel interpolation for U and V
Patch 4: HD results.
http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterp_hd_hpmv.html
Seems impressive (unless I am doing something wrong).
Patch 5: Added mmx/sse for bilateral filtering, as well as enforced
use of c-versions of subpel filters with 8-taps and 1/16th pel;
Also redesigned the 8-tap filters to reduce the cut-off in order to
introduce a denoising effect. There is a new configure option
sixteenth-subpel-uv which will use 1/16 th pel interpolation for
uv, if the motion vectors have 1/8 pel accuracy.
With the fixes the results are promising on the derf set. The enhanced
interpolation option with 8-taps alone gives 3% improvement over thei
derf set:
http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterpn.html
Results on high precision mv and on the hd set are to follow.
Patch 6: Adding a missing condition for CONFIG_SIXTEENTH_SUBPEL_UV in
vp8/common/x86/x86_systemdependent.c
Patch 7: Cleaning up various debug messages.
Patch 8: Merge conflict

Depending on implementation the optimized SAD functions may return early

Removal of the pickinter.c and .h files and calls to this
code.
Removal of some code relating to real time and one pass
settings though there is more to be done in this regard.
However, vp8_set_speed_features() now
only supports modes 0 and 1 and speeds up to 3
so rd should always be set.

In the variance calculations the difference is summed and later squared.
When the sum exceeds sqrt(2^31) the value is treated as a negative when
it is shifted which gives incorrect results.
To fix this we cast the result of the multiplication as unsigned.
The alternative fix is to shift sum down by 4 before multiplying.
However that will reduce precision.
For 16x16 blocks the maximum sum is 65280 and sqrt(2^31) is 46340 (and
change).
PPC change is untested.

This quite large check in includes the following:
Merge in some code from Ronald (mbgraph.c) that scans a Gf/arf group.
This is used as a basis for a simple segmentation for the normal frames
in a gf/arf group. This code also uses satd functions from Yaowu.
Adds functionality for coding the latest possible position of an EOB for
blocks in the segment. (Currently 0-15 only, hence just for 4x4 dct).
Where the EOB position is 0 this acts like "skip" and the normal coding
of skip at the per mb level is disabled.
Added functions (seg_common.c) for setting and reading segment feature
elements. These may want to be optimized away at some point but while the
mecahnism is in a state of flux they provide a single location for making
changes and keep things a bit cleaner.
This is still proof of concept code. Currently the tested feature set:-
Quantizer,
Loop Filter level,
Reference frame,
Prediction Mode,
EOB end stop.
TBD:-
Add functions for setting and reading the feature data with range
and validity checking.
Handling of signed and unsigned feature data. At the moment all is assumed
to be signed and a sign bit is coded but many cannot be negative.
Correct handling of EOB feature with intra coded blocks.
Testing/trapping of legal/illegal ref frame and mode combinations.
Transform size switch plus merge and test with 8c8 DCT work
Merge and test with Sumans Segmenation coding optimizations
