In sub-pixel calculation, xoffset and yoffset mostly take some
specific values. Modified sub-pixel filter functions according to
these possible values to improve performance.

Added code to scan ahead a few frames when we see what
we think is a static scene in the two pass GF loop to see if the
conditions persist.
Moved calculation of decay rate out into a fuunction.

These changes are specifically targeted at fade transitions to
static scenes. Here we want to place a GF/ARF immediately
after the fade and prevent an ARF just before the fade.
Also some code lines and comment lines shortened to 80 chars
while I was there.

Add --extra-cflags as config parameter for user defined extra CFLAGS.
Add -g to asflags when debug enabled for arm targets.

In both vp8_find_next_key_frame and define_gf_group,
motion_pct was initialised at the top of the loop before
next_frame stats had been read in.
This fix sets motion_pct after next_frame stats have
been read.

Prior to this change, VP8 min quantizer is 4, which caps the
highest quality around 51DB. This experimental change extends
the min quantizer to 1, removes the cap and allows the highest
quality to be around ~73DB, consistent with the fdct/idct round trip
error. To test this change, at configure time use options:
--enable-experimental --enable-extend_qrange
The following is a brief log of changes in each of the patch sets
patch set 1:
In this commit, the quantization/dequantization constants are kept
unchanged, instead scaling factor 4 is rolled into fdct/idct.
Fixed Q0 encoding tests on mobile:
Before: 9560.567kbps Overall PSNR:50.255DB VPXSSIM:98.288
Now: 18035.774kbps Overall PSNR:73.022DB VPXSSIM:99.991
patch set 2:
regenerated dc/ac quantizer lookup tables based on the scaling
factor rolled in the fdct/idct. Also slightly extended the range
towards the high quantizer end.
patch set 3:
slightly tweaked the quantizer tables and generated bits_per_mb
table based on Paul's suggestions.
patch set 4:
fix a typo in idct, re-calculated tables relating active max Q
to active min Q
patch set 5:
added rdmult lookup table based on Q
patch set 6:
fix rdmult scale: dct coefficient has scaled up by 4
patch set 7:
make transform coefficients to be within 16bits
patch set 8:
normalize 2nd order quantizers
patch set 9:
fix mis-spellings
patch set 10:
change the configure script and macros to allow experimental code
to be enabled at configure time with --enable-extend_qrange
patch set 11:
rebase for merge

Incorrect value loop_decay_rate used in GF loop.
The intent was to test the cumulative value decay_accumulator.

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.

In vp8_find_best_sub_pixel_step_iteratively(), many times xoffset
and yoffset are specific values - (4,0) (0,4) and (4,4). Modified
code to call simplified NEON version at these specific offsets to
help with the performance.

This code fixes a bug in the calculation of
the minimum Q for alt ref frames.
It also allows an extended gf/arf interval for sections
of clips that completely static (or nearly so).
Change-Id: I1a21aaa16d4f0578e5f99b13bebd78d59403c73b
Remove allocation/deallocation of stats storage.
Remove full search functions in machine specific encoder inits.
Remove last pass validation in validate_config.

The CQ level was not using the q_trans[] array to convert
to a 0-127 range as per min and maxq
Experimental change to try and match the reconstruction
error for forced key frames approximately to that of the
previous frame by means of the recode loop. Though this
may cause extra recodes and the recode behavior has not
been optimized, it can only happen on forced key frames.
Change-Id: I1f7e42d526f1b1cb556dd461eff1a692bd1b5b2f
Previously when a frame was being overlaid on a previously coded
alt ref frame we only checked the alt ref 0,0 mode. Where there is
a possibility that the alt ref buffer is a filtered frame we should allow
the other prediction modes as normal or at the least allow use of
the last frame buffer.

In cases where the frame width is not a multiple of 16 the
ARNR filter would go wrong.
In vp8_temporal_filter_iterate_c when updating pointers
at the end of a row of MBs, the image size was
incorrectly used rather than using Num_MBs_In_Row
times 16 (Y) or 8 (U,V).
This worked when width is multiple of 16 but failed
otherwise.

This change is designed to try and reduce pulsing effects when moving
with a complex transition like a fade, into an easy or static section in
an otherwise difficult clip in CQ mode.
The active CQ level is relaxed down to the user entered level for frames that
are generating less than the passed in minimum bandwidth.

Fixed discrepancy cpi->ni_frames vs cm->current_video_frame > 150.
Make one pass path explicit.
There is still scope for some odd behaviour around the transition
point at cpi->ni_frames > 150.

Where a key frame occurs because of a minimum interval
selected by the user, then these forced key frames ideally need
to be more closely matched in quality to the surrounding frame.
