57faddb7c5 fix denoiser for temporal patterns and rd
This extends the denoiser to work for temporally scalable
coding.

I believe this also fixes a very rare but really bad bug in the original
implementation.

49f7f05f52 asm_*_offsets to define variables as constants
This change is to allow obj_int_extract to extract all integers
in the data segment. With the const keyword these variables are
forced into the .rodata segment even for zero variable value.

We had a problem before that zero valueed variables would get
assigned to BSS segment that fooled obj_int_extract to give
incorrect values.

0f7e4665ae Make libvpx Chromium build friendly
Add PRIVATE macro for adding private_extern directive for yasm
to hide global symbols. This is only enabled if -DCHROMIUM is used
with YASM.

Also fixed a small problem with	rtcd_defs.sh to guard TEMPORAL_DENOISING.

4890853010 Fix another multithreaded encoder loopfilter race condition
After a key frame encoding, the frame type could change while
filtering is still going on. Pass the frame type as parameter to the
loopfilter function and don't read it from common storage.

vp8cx_set_alt_lf_level has to be done before packing the stream.
Currently alt_lf_level is not used so there hasn't been any visible
problem here.

e9818bb697 changed the way that default probs for 8x8 is set.
The commit changed how baseline 8x8 coefficient probabilities are
initialized, to be consistent with the initialization of baseline
4x4 coefficient probabilities.

The commit does not have any effect on compression.

65dd157c3c multi-res: force Key frame sychronization
In multi-resolution encoding, frame_type decision for each frame
is made by the lowest-resolution encoder. For all other higher-
resolution encoders, kf_mode is always set to VPX_KF_DISABLED,
and they are forced to use the same frame_type picked by the
lowest-resolution encoder.

0b8a95a0b2 Rewrite reference frame costing in the RD loop.
I now see I didn't write a very long description, so let's do it
here then. We took a pretty big quality hit (0.1-0.2%) from my
recent fix of the inversion of arguments to vp8_cost_bit() in the
RD reference frame costing. I looked into it and basically the
costing prevented us from switching reference frames. This is of
course silly, since each frame codes its own prob_intra_coded, so
using last frame cost indications as a limiting factor can never
be right.

Here, I've rewritten that code to estimate costings based partially
on statistics from progress on current frame encoding. Overall,
this gives us a ~0.2%-0.3% improvement over what we had previously
before my argument-inversion-fix, and thus about ~0.4% over current
git (on derf-set), and a little more (0.5-1.0%) on HD/STD-HD/YT.

acf3c729d8 Further firstpass.c changes.

instead of the decay accumulator value.

Change "transition to still detection" to compare the
decay rate from successive frames.

Minor tweak to the arf extra boost given based on the
number of frames affected.

Removed unused variable mod_err_per_mb_accumulator.

b22cc559b6 Changed to use integer 8x8 dct
The commit added an integer version of 8x8 forward DCT, based on the
orginal forward DCT from VP6. The constants, roundings, and shifts
were adjusted to improve the accuracy. The latest patch has a very
similar accuracy in term of round trip error against the floating
point version.

It should be noted here that the purpose of the patch is to help
encoding speed and facilitate all other experiments. There will be
futher review in combination with inverse DCT before finalization.

configure with "--enable--int_8x8fdct" to use the integer version

871bd23e4c Allow target autodetection to work when cross-compiling.
Allow CHOST to override the gcc -dumpmachine output. This allows to
use the target autodetection code when cross compiling by setting the
CHOST variable.

On Gentoo, we would like to support easy cross-compilation, and for
libvpx this would basically mean copying the code in
build/make/configure.sh to setup the right --target option. It seems a
lot easier to let it guess by itself.

Another option I considered was using CROSS-gcc instead but this would
not work for our multilib setups: They use gcc -m32 to build 32bits
binaries and gcc -m32 -dumpmachine will output the 64bits version,
which would then make libvpx wrongly believe it is building for a
64bits architecture.

Factored out some code relating to ARNR selection to a separate
function as this is likely to be changed / simplified soon.

959b296a40 Don't use compound prediction for golden frames based on alt-ref frames.
These frames can force reference frame (arf), mode (zeromv) and skip,
which means that if we use compound prediction (i.e. arf+last), we
might use a blend of a perfect (arf) and an imperfect (last) predictor,
leading to semi-garbage display and thus a huge drop in SSIM/PSNR (up
to 10dB for some frames I analyzed).

Gives a +0.2% gain on YT.

35358320e3 First pass overhaul preparatory change.
This is the first patch in a series of changes to the first
pass code. (Broken down for ease of testing/merging/review).

This patch introduces a new stats element "sr_coded_error".
This is the coded error recorded vs the second reference
frame (which is updated such that it lags by at least one frame).
No use is made of the new structure in this change so this patch
should have no material effect.

Removed some ifdefs and deprecated code (#if NEW_BOOST).
