This commit compares the current original frame to the previous
original frame at 64x64 block level and decides if the entire
block belongs to background area. If it is in the background area,
skip non-RD partition search and copy the partition types of the
collocated block in the previous frame.
For vidyo1 in the rtc set, this makes the speed -5 coding speed
about 8% faster. The overall compression performance is down by
1.37% for rtc set.

Delete code relating to the old VP8_TUNE_SSIM flag
as this code does not currently work and is largely made
redundant in VP9 by the various AQ modes.

Remove duplicate rd_thresh code introduced when vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sub8x8()
was forked from vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sb().

Fix rate control bug whereby the rate factor heuristics
were being updated on arf overlays causing a rate surge
for a few frames followed by a corrective drop.
This fix eliminates many of the overshoot problems that
we were seeing on hard clips (even without applying
stricter vbr rate control) and also helps quality on
almost all clips with some hard clips improving by >5%.
Overall quality results measured at speed 2.
Derf +1.78% opsnr , +2.44% SSIM
Stdhd +2.41% opsnr, +2.85% SSIM

We don't use declarations from this file. The real declarations
(differently named) are in vp9_rtcd_defs.pl, e.g. vp9_full_search_sad.

Added command line flags "resize-width" & "resize-height"
to allow the user to specify the frame size to encode at.
These two flags are ignored if the "resize-allowed" switch
is not set to 1.
All frames in the clip are then encoded at this size, which
must be smaller than the raw frame size.

A previous path improved speed 2 quality a little but
more extensive testing showed that it slowed encode
by a few %.
The change will have a similar effect for speed 3 but
should not impact speeds 4+;
This experiment should reverse that and give a speed
up at the cost of a small quality loss.
Borg results pending.
