In AQ1 a rate adjustment was applied for blocks coded with a
deltaq. This tends to skew the partition selection and cause
rate overshoot.
For example, consider a 64x64 super block where some but not all
sub blocks are in a low q segment and some are in a high q segment.
The choice of Q when considering large partition and transform sizes
is defined by the lowest sub block segment id (currently this implies the
lowest Q). If some parts of the larger partition are very hard this will
cause a high rate component.
The correct behavior here is for the rd code to discard the large partition
choice and break down to sub blocks where some have low and some
have high Q. However the rate correction factor above mask the high
cost of coding at a larger partition size.

Make the midpoint variance used in AQ mode 1 segmentation

By using 0xff for a short it was not setting the high bits. When
comparing the output with vtst to find non-zero elements it was skipping
vaules which had no low bits set such as -512 / 0xFE00.
Using -8191 as the first element of coeff will generate this condition.

Add an additional restriction to bit/complexity based
segmentation based on spatial variance.
Only lower Q when both the number of bits spent
in the initial encoding pass and the spatial complexity are
below a threshold. This will prevent the low Q segments
being used just because there is a surfeit of bits.
Small metrics gains especially opsnr.

Similar to mask_filter, the filter_cache in RD_OPT struct can be
moved out, and declared as a local variable since it is only
used in pick_inter_mode functions.

Correct calculation of number of mbs in two pass code when

The mask_filter in RD_OPT struct is used to record rd result in

and is removed from the struct and declared as a local variable.

VP9/DatarateTestVP9Large.ChangingDropFrameThresh/[34] fails post the

when frame is dropped, and fixes the causes of the bad interaction
between the tests and the previous commit.

This commit reworks the forward transform and quantization process
for 8x8 block coding. It combines the two operations in a single
function to save a store/load stage of the original transform
coefficients. Overall the speed -6 is slightly faster (around 1%
range). The compression performance of speed -6 is improved by
3.4%.

In rare cases, the interaction between rate correction factor and Q
choices may cause severe oscillating frame sizes that are way off
target bandwidth. This commit adds tracking of rate control results
for last two frames, and use the information to prevent oscillating
Q choices.

vp9_quantize_fp is the quantization process used by rtc coding

implementation is modified based on vp9_quantize_b_sse2. No speed

Current setting had active_worst_quality set too high (close to worst_quality)
for first frame(s) following first key frame. This changes that to be somewhat
more aggressive in allowing active_worst_quality to be lower following key frame.
Also remove the 4/5 reduction in active_worst for key frame as
this should be set by the user qp_max setting.
