Inform the caller of the decoder if a decoded frame updated last,
golden, or altref frames, required for realtime communication
proposed in document VP8 RTP payload format.
Added a new vpx_codec_control called VP8D_GET_LAST_REF_UPDATES, to be
called after vpx_codec_decode. The control will indicate which of the
reference frames that were updated by setting the 3 LSBs in the input
int (pointer).

In SPLITMV, the 8x8 segment will be checked first. If the 8x8 rd
is better than the best, we check the other segments. Otherwise
bail. Adjustments to the thresh_mult were necessary to make
up for the initial quality loss.
The performance improved by 20% (average) for good quality,
speed 0 and speed 1, while the overall quality remained the same.

vp8_rd_pick_best_mbsegmentation looks at y only. The new
breakout does not include the frame cost, the prob_skip_false
cost, or the uv rate. Performance improved by a few percent
and the quality remained the same.

This fix added MV range checks for NEWMV mode as suggested by Jim.
To reduce unnecessary MV range checks, I tried Yaowu's suggestion.
Update UMV borders in NEWMV mode to also cover MV range check.
Also, in this way, every MV that is valid gets checked in diamond
search function.

The MV's range is 256. Since the new motion search uses a different
starting MV than the center ref MV, a MV range checking needs to
be done to avoid corruption.

Change I3430820 performed an uninitialized read when
encode_breakout == 0, since the sum and sse wouldn't be set:

if (cpi->active_map_enabled && x->active_ptr[0] == 0) {

Corrected the initial Q range limits for the recode loop
to reflect the current allowed range for the frame.
In experimental work on constrained quality this bug was

The inter_minq table controls the range of quantizers available
for a particular frame in two pass relative to a max Q value.
The changes reduces the range somewhat. The effect of this
was a small increase (0.3% average) in psnr for the test set
but it should also help encode speed somewhat for higher
quality modes as it will reduce the number of iterations in the
recode loop.
The change damps the range of quantizers available locally
within a section of a clip and should therefore help keep quality
more uniform. If there is systematic overshoot or undershoot the
range can shift gradually to accommodate. However, there is
some increased risk of overshoot or undershoot against the target
bit rate in VBR mode and this risk will be more pronounced for short
clips.

Add vp8_mv_pred() to better predict starting MV for NEWMV
mode in vp8_rd_pick_inter_mode(). Set different search
ranges according to MV prediction accuracy, which improves
encoder performance without hurting the quality. Also,
as Yaowu suggested, using diamond search result as full
search starting point and therefore adjusting(reducing)
full search range helps the performance.

On a keyframe alt ref and golden are refreshed. The flag was
not being set and so on the frame after a keyframe, motion
search would occur on the alt ref frame. This is not necessary
because the alt ref frame identical to the last frame in this
scenario.
Handle corner case where a forward alt-ref frame is put
directly after a keyframe.

This function was never called in a context expecting a return value,
the return value was always a constant, and the !CONFIG_MULTITHREAD
path didn't have a return statement, which caused a compiler warning.
This patch changes the function to return void instead.
