For VP9, lossless coding is enabled by passing 0 for both min_q and
max_q. This is a valid configuration, and should not be warned.

In lossless coding, distortion is always 0. Early exit based on this
metric was incorrect.
This CL also changed to use best_rd instead of distortion as the metric
for easly exit as requested by Jim.

Add a full range motion search for regular block sizes. This runs
exhaustive search within the given reference area. This commit further
optimizes the search process by combining 4 points test into one
pipeline, which gives 30% speed-up as compared to run each individual
point at a time.
This full range search serves as a best possible motion search reference.
When replacing the diamond search with full range search, the speed 0
runtime of bus CIF at 2000 kbps goes from 153872ms to 623051ms. The
compression performance compared to speed 0 setting gains 0.585% for
derf set.

Removed an adaptive rate correction factor that was having
a negative impact on quality in many clips. This factor
was influencing the Q range available to each frame
independently of the bits allocated to each.

Includes various cleanups.
Streamlines the interfaces so that all rate control state
updates happen in the vp9_rc_postencode_update() function.
This will hopefully make it easier to support multiple
rate control schemes.
Removes some unnecessary code, which in rare cases can casue
a difference in the constrained quality mode output, but
other than that there is no bitstream change yet.

Removed calls to vp9_update_mode_info_border since
they immediately followed code that initialized the
entire buffer to 0.

Both single frame and compound inter motion search run with luma
component only. Hence removing the block size mapping therein.

The old code would start in a mixed state, where all the reference
frames were pointing to frame buffer 0, but the reference counts
were 0. This is why we needed special code for the first frame.
