In handle_inter_mode, the reference frames are set in refs buffer.
One can use refs buffer directly to avoid redundant fetch.

Instead of using source variance, this patch uses variance of the
frame difference between the source and the current frame to make
fixed size partition decisions. Also disables adjusting partitioning
if variance based or fixed size partitioning is used.
The latter change improves the speed substantially for speed 6, so
that speed 7 is now less than 3x the speed of speed 6. But speed
6 is 48% better in psnr on the rtc set compared to speed 7.
As compared to speed 5,
speed 6 is -37% in psnr at about 2.5x the speed,
speed 7 is -55% in psnr at about 7x the speed.

There was a bug in the previous code that if GOLDEN was better than
LAST neither would be used. LAST would get turned off due to superior
GOLDEN quality then all GOLDEN modes would get skipped.

Removing all copies of identical vp8_mse2psnr/vp9_mse2psnr functions.
Using vpx_sse_to_psnr() instead in all places.

Usage of encode_b_args is unnecessary because encode_block_pass1() doesn't
use them. That's why optimize_init_b() call is also not required.

As Yunqing suggested, this commit makes non-RD mode decision always run
sub-pixel motion search in NEWMV mode. The compression performance
gains becomes fairly significant after we enabled sub-pixel accuracy
motion compensated prediction to calculate SAD cost.
For test sequences pedestrian_area at 1080p and vidyo1 at 720p, the
runtime goes slower by 5%. For rtc test set, the compression performance
is improved by 21.20%.

The commit change to use partitions sizes directly from last frame
for frames directly where last frame selects partitions sizes based
on coding efficiency.
On --rt --cpu-used=-5, the change hurts compression by 4% but reduces
encoding time by ~20%

This commit builds the actual prediction block in sub-pixel accuracy
and uses which to calculate SAD for non-RD mode decision. In the trail
run on pedestrian_area at 1080p, rtc speed -7 runtime goes from
23495 ms -> 25107 ms (7% slower). The compression performance is
improved by 20.57% for rtc test set.

Use a set of dedicated variables to buffer the current best mode
in non-RD mode decision. This allows to use mode_info for more
complicated test in the non-RD process.

Adds a method for determining a fixed size partition based on
variance of a 64x64 SB. This method is added to rtc speed 6.
Also fixes a bug in rtc_use_partition() and includes some
refactoring related to partitioning search, and some cosmetics.
Currently compared to speed 5, the coding efficiency of speed 6
is -19% and that of speed 7 is -55%, in cbr mode.
