Call the idct/add after the tokenize. This is WIP with
the goal of creating a common idct/add for the encoder and
decoder. This move is necessary because the decoder's version
of the idct clobbers qcoeff, which is used by the tokenize.

Added ARM optimized intra 4x4 prediction
- 2x faster on Profiler compared to C-code compiled with -O3
- Function interface changed a little to improve BLOCKD structure

vp8cx_mb_init_quantizer() needs to be called at least once to get
all values calculated. This change added one check to decide if
we could skip initialization or not.

Added code to clip the buffer level to the maximum buffer
size. Without this the buffer level would increase
unchecked.
This bug was found when encoding an essentially static
scene at 2Mb/s. The encoder is unable to generate frames
consistent with the high data-rate because Q bottoms out
at Qmin.
As frames generated are consistently undersized the buffer
level increases and does not get checked against the
maximum size specified by the user (or default).

Fix compiler warning for passing a non const array
to a function expecting a const array by using an
intermediary pointer and casting.

Changed 'int eob' to 'char *eob' in BLOCKD so that both encoder and
decoder will use eobs[25] array from MACROBLOCKD structure. In future,
this will enable use of the decoder side IDCT in the encoder.

In some situations (f.g. error-resilient is turned on), vp8cx_mb
_init_quantizer() was called once per macroblock. Added checks
to avoid calculations when there is no change.

It is discovered that in rare situations the 2nd order block may
produce a few small magnitude coefficients that has no effect on
reconstruction. The situations are a combination of low quantizer
values (high quality) and low energy in residual signals (content
dependent). This commit added code to detect such cases and reset
the 2nd order block to all 0.
Patch 1 to 4 used code to do all-zero-check on idct result buffer,
and tests on derf set showed a consistent gain of .12%-.14% on all
metrics.But due to a recent change Ie31d90b, the idct result buffer
is not longer populated. So patch 5&6 use an alternative method to
detect the situations. Tests on derf set now shows a consistent
quality gain of .16%-.20%.
As suggested by Jim, Patch 7&8 removed the condition of all first
order block not having any coefficient, instead we reset 2nd order
coefficients to all 0 if sum of absolute value of the coefficients
is small. So it does slightly more than just detecting the oddity
as discussed above, but tests on derf set now show a consistent
gain of .20%-.23% on all metrics.
It is worth noting here that this change does not have any effect
on mid/high quantizer range, it only affects the quantizer value
18 or blow. Within this range, the change helps compression by up
to 2.5% on clips in the derf set.

The partial frame copy function used to copy an extra 8 lines above
and below. The partial frame filtering can only modify 3 pixel rows
above the partial frame. Reduce copy to bare minimum needed, which is
4 lines, so that partial filtering on copied frame is possible.
Define the "magic" fraction number for partial filtering in
loopfilter.h .

Instead of using the predict buffer, the decoder now writes
the predictor into the recon buffer. For blocks with eob=0,
unnecessary idcts can be eliminated. This gave a performance
boost of ~1.8% for the HD clips used.
Tero: Added needed changes to ARM side and scheduled some
assembly code to prevent interlocks.
Patch Set 6: Merged (I1bcdca7a95aacc3a181b9faa6b10e3a71ee24df3)
into this commit because of similarities in the idct
functions.
Patch Set 7: EC bug fix.

It was crashing when number of partitions was bigger than the number
of MB rows (ex. 128x96 with 8 partitions).
Start point was not checked against mb_rows, plus extra
"empty" partitions were not written out.

Added the ability to create rate-targeted, temporally
scalable, VP8 compatible bitstreams.
The application vp8_scalable_patterns.c demonstrates how
to use this capability. Users can create output bitstreams
containing upto 5 temporally separable streams encoded
as a single VP8 bitstream.

vp8_find_near_mvs() is being called on all possible reference frames
but the data computed may be used if the loop exits early, which can
be due to x->skip beign set to 1.
Optimize this by call vp8_find_near_mvs() laziy only if it is going
to be used and not computed yet.

Changes to the selection of Q limits for two pass
and two pass CQ mode.
Allowance made for Mode and motion vector costs.
Some refactoring of common code.
For Derf and YT sets CQ mode average improvement
circa 1% (SSIM and Global PSNR).
Some increased tendency to undershoot even when
user CQ not reached.
Patch2: Removed some test code accidentally merged.

Sync with loopfilter thread just at the beginning of next frame encoding.
This returns control to application faster and allows a better multicore scaling.
When PSNR packets are generated the final filtered frame is needed imediatly
so we cannot delay the sync.
