This patch removes the local copies of the dequantize
constants and implements John's idea as described
in "Make a local copy of the dequantized data" commit.

The example encoder down-samples the input video frames a number of
times with a down-sampling factor, and then encodes and outputs
bitstreams with different resolutions.
Support arbitrary down-sampling factor, and down-sampling factor
can be different for each encoding level.
For example, the encoder can be tested as follows.
1. Configure with multi-resolution encoding enabled:
../libvpx/configure --target=x86-linux-gcc --disable-codecs
--enable-vp8 --enable-runtime_cpu_detect --enable-debug
--disable-install-docs --enable-error-concealment
--enable-multi-res-encoding
2. Run make
3. Encode:
If input video is 1280x720, run:
./vp8_multi_resolution_encoder 1280 720 input.yuv 1.ivf 2.ivf 3.ivf 1
(output: 1.ivf(1280x720); 2.ivf(640x360); 3.ivf(320x180).
The last parameter is set to 1/0 to show/not show PSNR.)
4. Decode:
./simple_decoder 1.ivf 1.yuv
./simple_decoder 2.ivf 2.yuv
./simple_decoder 3.ivf 3.yuv
5. View video:
mplayer 1.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=1280:h=720 -loop 0 -fps 30
mplayer 2.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=640:h=360 -loop 0 -fps 30
mplayer 3.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=320:h=180 -loop 0 -fps 30
The encoding parameters can be modified in vp8_multi_resolution_encoder.c,
for example, target bitrate, frame rate...
Modified API. John helped a lot with that. Thanks!

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.

for SPLITMV and B_PRED modes. Modified code to use the bmi
found in mode_info_context instead of BLOCKD. On the decode
side, the uvmvs are calculated only when required, instead of
every macroblock. This is WIP. (bmi should eventually be
removed from BLOCKD)
Small performance gains noticed for RT encodes and decodes.(VGA)

sharpness was not recalculated in vp8cx_pick_filter_level_fast
remove last_filter_type. all values are calculated, don't need to update
the lfi data when it changes.
always use cm->sharpness_level. the extra indirection was annoying.
don't track last frame_type or sharpness_level manually. frame type
only matters for motion search and sharpness_level is taken care of in
frame_init
move function declarations to their proper header

In sub-pixel motion search, the search range is small(+/- 3 pixels).
Preload whole search area from reference buffer into a 32-byte
aligned buffer. Then in search, load reference data from this buffer
instead. This keeps data in cache, and reduces the crossing cache-
line penalty. For tulip clip, tests on Intel Core2 Quad machine(linux)
showed encoder speed improvement:
3.4% at --rt --cpu-used =-4
2.8% at --rt --cpu-used =-3
2.3% at --rt --cpu-used =-2
2.2% at --rt --cpu-used =-1
Test on Atom notebook showed only 1.1% speed improvement(speed=-4).
Test on Xeon machine also showed less improvement, since unaligned
data access latency is greatly reduced in newer cores.
Next, I will apply similar idea to other 2 sub-pixel search functions
for encoding speed > 4.
Make this change exclusively for x86 platforms.

Declared the bmi in BLOCKD as a union instead of B_MODE_INFO.
Then removed B_MODE_INFO completely.

Declared the bmi in MODE_INFO as a union instead of B_MODE_INFO.
This reduced the memory footprint by 518,400 bytes for 1080
resolutions. The decoder performance improved by ~4% for the
clip used and the encoder showed very small improvements. (0.5%)
This reduction was first mentioned to me by John K. and in a
later discussion by Yaowu.
This is WIP.

The compiler produces better assembly when using int_mv
for assignments. The compiler shifts and ors the two 16bit
values when assigning MV.

The dc_diff flag is used to skip loopfiltering. Instead
of setting this flag in the decoder/encoder, we now check
for this condition in the loopfilter.

A new vpx_codec_control called VP8D_GET_FRAME_CORRUPTED. The output
from the function is non-zero if the last decoded frame contains
corruption due to packet losses.
The decoder is also modified to accept encoded frames of zero length.
A zero length frame indicates to the decoder that one or more frames
have been completely lost. This will mark the last decoded reference
buffer as corrupted. The data pointer can be NULL if the length is
zero.

This eliminates a large set of warnings exposed by the Mozilla build
system (Use of C++ comments in ISO C90 source, commas at the end of
enum lists, a couple incomplete initializers, and signed/unsigned
comparisons).
It also eliminates many (but not all) of the warnings expose by newer
GCC versions and _FORTIFY_SOURCE (e.g., calling fread and fwrite
without checking the return values).
There are a few spurious warnings left on my system:
../vp8/encoder/encodemb.c:274:9: warning: 'sz' may be used
uninitialized in this function
gcc seems to be unable to figure out that the value shortcut doesn't
change between the two if blocks that test it here.
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5314:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5319:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
This is true, so far as it goes, but it's comparing against an enum, and the C
standard does not mandate that enums be unsigned, so the checks can't be
removed.

Most of the code that actually uses these matrices indexes them as
if they were a single contiguous array, and coverity produces
reports about the resulting accesses that overflow the static
bounds of the first row.
This is perfectly legal in C, but converting them to actual [16]
arrays should eliminate the report, and removes a good deal of
extraneous indexing and address operators from the code.

../libvpx/vp8/encoder/bitstream.c: In function ‘pack_inter_mode_mvs’:

Loopfilter deltas are initialized to zero on keyframes in the decoder.
The values then persist from the previous frame unless an update bit
is set in the bitstream. This data is not included in the entropy
data saved by the 'refresh entropy' bit in the bitstream, so it is
effectively an additional contextual element beyond the 3 ref-frames
and the entropy data.
The encoder was treating this delta update bit as update-if-nonzero,
meaning that the value would be refreshed even if it hadn't changed,
and more significantly, if the correct value for the delta changed
to zero, the update wouldn't be sent, and the decoder would preserve
the last (presumably non-zero) value.
This patch updates the encoder to send an update only if the value
has changed from the previously transmitted value. It also forces the
value to be transmitted in error resilient mode, to account for lost
context in the event of lost frames.

Changes 'The VP8 project' to 'The WebM project', for consistency
with other webmproject.org repositories.
Fixes issue #97.

Moved partition_bmi and partition_count out of MB_MODE_INFO and
placed into MACROBLOCK. Also reduced the size of other members
of the MB_MODE_INFO struct. For 1080p, the memory was reduced
by 1,209,516 bytes. The decoder performance appeared to improve
by 3% for the clip used.
Note: The main goal for this change is to improve the decoder
performance. The encoder will be revisited at a later date for
further structure cleanup.

The main reason for the change was to reduce cycles in the token
decoder. (~1.5% gain for 32 bit) This layout should be more
cache friendly.
As a result of this change, the encoder had to be updated.

Note: dixie uses a similar layout
Moving the eob structure allows for a non-struct based
function to handle decoding an entire mb of
idct/dequant/recon data. This allows for SIMD functions
to idct/dequant/recon multiple blocks at once.
SSE2 implementation gives 3% gain on Atom.

These copies occurred for each macroblock in the encoder and decoder.
Thetemp MB_MODE_INFO mbmi was removed from MACROBLOCKD. As a result,
a large number compile errors had to be fixed.

This patch removes the secondary MV clamping from the MV decoder. This
behavior was consistent with limits placed on non-split MVs by the
reference encoder, but was inconsistent with the MVs generated in the
split case.
The purpose of this secondary clamping was only to prevent crashes on
invalid data. It was not intended to be a behaviour an encoder could or
should rely on. Instead of doing additional clamping in a way that
changes the entropy context, the secondary clamp is removed and the
border handling is made implmentation specific. With respect to the
spec, the border is treated as essentially infinite, limited only by
the clamping performed on the near/nearest reference and the maximum
encodable magnitude of the residual MV.
This does not affect any currently produced streams.
