Extended prediction and coding of reference frame where
a subset of options are flagged as available at the segment level.
Updated copyright notices.
Switch to SAD in mbgraph code as SATD problematic for the
foreground and background separation as it can ignore large DC shifts.

As a precursor to encoding 32x32 blocks this cl adds the
ability to encode the frame superblock (=32x32 block) at
a time. Within a SB the 4 indiviual MBs are encoded in
raster-order (NW,NE,SW,SE).
This functionality is added as an experiment which can be
enabled by ispecifying --enable-superblocks in the
command line specified to configure (CONFIG_SUPERBLOCKS
macro in the code).
To make this work I had to disable the two intra
prediction modes that use data from the top-right of the
MB.
On the tests that I have run the results produce
almost exactly the same PSNRs & SSIMs with a very
slightly higher average data rate (and slightly higher
data rate than just disabling the two intra modes in
the original code).
NOTE: This will also break the multi-threaded code.
This replaces the abandoned change:

The bug was introduced by the commit that added I8X8 intra prediction
mode for inter frames, the decoder was not update to accept the additional
probability update from encoder. This causes the decoder typicall to crash
when encoder sends intra mode probability update.

This does not change any functionality just modifies the code to
use the common prediction module interface for coding
the segment data.

This function adds the common prediction modules, some data structures
and a config option but does not use them.
It also corrects a bug in clearing down the MODE_INFO border and introduces
a new element that indicates if an entry corresponds to an "in image" macro block
or is part of the border.

This is the final commit in the series converting to the new RTCD
system. It removes the encoder csystemdependent files and the remaining
global function pointers that didn't conform to the old RTCD system.

This commit continues the process of converting to the new RTCD
system. It removes the last of the VP8_ENCODER_RTCD struct references.

This is a proof of concept RTCD implementation to replace the current
system of nested includes, prototypes, INVOKE macros, etc. Currently
only the decoder specific functions are implemented in the new system.
Additional functions will be added in subsequent commits.
Overview:
RTCD "functions" are implemented as either a global function pointer
or a macro (when only one eligible specialization available).
Functions which have RTCD specializations are listed using a simple
DSL identifying the function's base name, its prototype, and the
architecture extensions that specializations are available for.
Advantages over the old system:
- No INVOKE macros. A call to an RTCD function looks like an ordinary
function call.
- No need to pass vtables around.
- If there is only one eligible function to call, the function is
called directly, rather than indirecting through a function pointer.
- Supports the notion of "required" extensions, so in combination with
the above, on x86_64 if the best function available is sse2 or lower
it will be called directly, since all x86_64 platforms implement
sse2.
- Elides all references to functions which will never be called, which
could reduce binary size. For example if sse2 is required and there
are both mmx and sse2 implementations of a certain function, the
code will have no link time references to the mmx code.
- Significantly easier to add a new function, just one file to edit.
Disadvantages:
- Requires global writable data (though this is not a new requirement)
- 1 new generated source file.

Commit 892e23a5b introduced support for the VP8D_GET_LAST_REF_USED,
but missed the mapping of the control id to the underlying function,
so it was unavailable to applications.
In addition, the underlying function vp8_references_buffer() is
moved from common/postproc.c to decoder/onyxd_if.c as postproc.c is
not built in all configurations.

changed the token cost for 8x8 transformed macroblock used in trellisquant
from those derived from 4x4 transform coefficient distribution to those
derived from 8x8 transform coefficient distribution. Test results show
this fix help 8x8 transform based compression consistently on cif and hd
sets:
http://www.corp.google.com/~yaowu/no_crawl/t8x8/cif_cost8x8only.html
(avg psnr:.14% glb psnr: .17% ssim: .20%)
http://www.corp.google.com/~yaowu/no_crawl/t8x8/hd_cost8x8only.html
(avg psnr:.17% glb psnr: .18% ssim: .58%)
Note: To test the effect of this change, 8x8 transform was forced to be used
only on 16x16 predicted macroblocks on inter frames, the effect would be
bigger had all macroblocks been forcd to use 8x8 transform.

using an 8-tap filter.
The results with 3 different 8-tap filters on the derf set are in:

The one that gives the most gain achieves an overall gain of about
0.6%. The results for a set of 12 hd (720p) videos are in:
http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterp_hd.html
with max gain of 0.55% with the same filter. The best filter apparently
achieves the best trade-off between pass band ripple and stop band
attenuation.

Commit e06c242ba introduced a change to call vp8_find_near_mvs() only
once instead of once per reference frame by observing that the only
effect that the frame had was on the bias applied to the motion
vector. By keeping track of the sign_bias value, the mv to use could
be flip-flopped by multiplying its components by -1.
This behavior was subtley wrong in the case when clamping was applied
to the motion vectors found by vp8_find_near_mvs(). A motion vector
could be in-bounds with one sign bias, but out of bounds after
inverting the sign, or vice versa. The clamping must match that done
by the decoder.
This change modifies vp8_find_near_mvs() to remove the clamping from
that function. The vp8_pick_inter_mode() and vp8_rd_pick_inter_mode()
functions instead track the correctly clamped values for both bias
values, switching between them by simple assignment. The common
clamping and inversion code is in vp8_find_near_mvs_bias()

This commit is incomplete, as it does not synchronize the loop filter
before returning a handle to the reconstructed frame in
vpx_codec_get_preview_frame(), which can cause (false?) failures
when running the test_reconstruct_buffer test.
This may be related to a bug that does cause visible artifacts, which
is also under investigation.
This reverts commit 380d64ecb19984a1466e727244a41445ae919060.

This introduces base functions for introducing implicit segmentation.
The code that actually stores the results to the segment map isn't
here yet. This just prints out the segmentation map results
if you call it.
Uses connected component labeling technique on mbmi info so that only
if 2 mbs are horizontally or vertically touching do they get the same
segment.

necessarily have NEON dsp extensions. This CL
has the added side effect of allowing the ability
to enable/disable the dsp extensions cleanly.
