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.

There were some situations that the start motion vectors were
out of range. This fix adjusted range checks to make sure they
are checked and clamped.

Do mvp clamping in full-pixel precision instead of 1/8-pixel
precision to avoid error caused by right shifting operation.
Also, further fixed the motion vector limit calculation in change:

Motion vector limits are calculated using right shifts, which
could give wrong results for negative numbers. James Berry's
test on one clip showed encoder produced some artifacts. This
change fixed that.

I got this idea from Pascal (Thanks). Before encoding a macroblock,
copy it to a 16x16 buffer, and then read source data from there
instead. This will help keep the source data in cache, and help
with the performance.

The BPRED mode selection uses SSE as a distortion metric, but the early
breakout threshold being used was a variance value.

Small decode performance gain (~1%) on keyframes. No
noticeable gains on encode. Also changed pick_intra4x4mby_modes()
to read the above and left block modes for keyframes only.
Change-Id: I1f4885252f5b3e9caf04d4e01e643960f910aba5
Since BPRED will be tested at most once, and SPLITMV is not enabled,
there's nothing to clobber the subblock modes, so there's no need to
save and restore them.

This change is analogous to I0b67dae1f8a74902378da7bdf565e39ab832dda7,
which made the move for the non-RD path.

This commit moves the intra block mode selection from encodeframe.c
to pickinter.c (in the non-RD case). This allowed pick_intra_mbuv_mode
and pick_intra4x4mby_modes to be made static, and is a step towards
refactoring intra mode selection in the main pickinter loop. Gave a
small perf increase (~0.5%).

In real-time mode motion search, there is no need to calculate
variance. This change improved encoding speed by 1% ~ 2%(speed=-5).

Currently, hex search couldn't guarantee the motion vector(MV)
found is within the limit of maximum MV. Therefore, very large
motion vectors resulted from big motion in the video could cause
encoding artifacts. This change adjusted hex search bounds
checking to make sure the resulted motion vector won't go out
of the range. James Berry, thank you for finding the bug.

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

this commit makes the usage errorperbit and sadperbit consistent for
encoding modes and passes. Removed all different magic weight factors
associated with errorperbit. Now 1/2 is used for both sadperbit16 and
sadperbit4, the /2 operation is merged into initializations of the 2
variables.
Tests on cif set show .23%, 0.18% and 0.19% gain by avg psnr, overall
psnr and ssim respectively.

sad_per_bit has been used for a number of motion vector search routines
with different magic weights: 1, 1/2 and 1/4. This commit remove these
magic numbers and use 1/2 for all motion search routines, also reformat
a number of source code lines to within 80 column limit.
Test on cif set shows overall effect is neutral on all metrics. <=0.01%

While profile=3, there is no sub-pixel search. Distortion and SSE
have to calculated using get_inter_mbpred_error().

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 partition_info struct contains info just for SPLITMV,
so it should be used instead of BLOCKD. Eventually, I want
to reduce the size of B_MODE_INFO struct found in BLOCKD, so
this is the first step toward that goal.
Also, since SPLITMV is not supported in vp8_pick_inter_mode(),
the unnecessary mem copies and checks were removed. For rt
encodes, this gave a slight performance improvement.

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.

Passed SSE from sub-pixel search back to pick_inter_mode
function, which is compared with the encode_breakout to
see if we could skip evaluating the remaining modes.

In vp8_pick_inter_mode(), for NEWMV mode, use the error result got
from motion search as distortion. This helps performance in real-
time mode.

The value of distortion2 returned by vp8_pick_intra4x4mby_modes

Index i is used to detect early breakout from the first loop, but
its value is lost due to reuse in the second for loop. I moved
the position of the second loop and did some format cleanup.

Previous to commit de4e9e3, there was an early return in the alt-ref
case that was inadvertantly removed when the function was refactored
to return void. This patch restores the prior behavior.

The error accumulator stats values cpi->prediction_error and
cpi->intra_error were being populated with rd values not
distortion values.
These are only "currently" used in a limited way for RT compress
key frame detection.
