Various cleanups and streamlining of interfaces as precursor
to further advancements in rate control.
Pre-encode parameter setting for different use cases:
One-pass, first of 2-pass, second of 2-pass, and Svc
are separated out.
There is no change in output with this change.

Take account of the fact that the overlay frame is usually
very cheap so distribute target bits among the other frames.

This will hurt metrics in some cases (particularly for static
clips at low data rates where there is extra overhead, but it
helps smooth transitions around forced key frames between
stitched kf sections.

Slightly reduces the mean tendency to undershoot target
rate in vbr, especially when using the memory less mode
and when recodes are disabled.
The effect is primarily at low q.

This commit reworks the prediction filter rate-distortion cost update
process consistent for all block sizes.

lf deltas are later setup in function vp9_setup_past_independence(),
so this commit removed the redundant copy. Also renamed a function
to better align the behavior of the funciton.

Various cleanups and refactoring.
Removes feedback of active worst qaulity and uses last_q
instead to make the interface cleaner. Active worst quality
is now decided only once for a frame being coded in the
beginning based on last_q and other stats. Also, adds other
cleaups on last_q to store also the last_q for altref frames,
and reduces the altref interval a little.
The output does change a little.
derfraw300: +0.224% (global psnr)
stdhdraw250: +0.442% (global psnr)

Properly handle the rd_filter_cache update, when early termination
or skip prediction filter type check is triggered.

Increased threshold(t) for interp filter search. This sped up the
encoder with some PSNR loss.
Borg tests were ran at speed 2.
t = 100, PSNR loss:
-0.710%(derf); -0.561%(stdhd); -0.647%(youtube)
speedup:
9%(derf); 3%(stdhd); 5.7%(youtube)
t = 500, PSNR loss:
-1.687%(derf); -1.665%(stdhd); -1.664%(youtube)
speedup:
18%(derf); 10%(stdhd); 8%(youtube)
