In some cases intra modes in inter frames give
an over smoothed appearance. Especially with
noisy but flat content.
Also in some cases there were problems with key
frame sizing again with very flat but noisy content.
These are temporary changes to help alleviate the
visual problems but will almost certainly hurt metric
results especially at the very low data rate end.

This is to fix a decoder crash when decoder skips a number of frame to
continue decoding from a later key frame.

The mismatch was caused by an improper merge of cleanup code around
tokenize_b() and stuff_b() with TX32X32 experiment.

Modifies the scanning pattern and uses a floating point 16x16
dct implementation for now to handle scaling better.
Also experiments are in progress with 2/6 and 9/7 wavelets.
Results have improved to within ~0.25% of 32x32 dct for std-hd
and about 0.03% for derf. This difference can probably be bridged by
re-optimizing the entropy stats for these transforms. Currently
the stats used are common between 32x32 dct and dwt/dct.
Experiments are in progress with various scan pattern - wavelet
combinations.
Ideally the subbands should be tokenized separately, and an
experiment will be condcuted next on that.

Gives 0.5-0.6% improvement on derf and stdhd, and 1.1% on hd. The
old tables basically derive from times that we had only 4x4 or
only 4x4 and 8x8 DCTs.
Note that some values are filled with 128, because e.g. ADST ever
only occurs as Y-with-DC, as does 32x32; 16x16 ever only occurs
as Y-with-DC or as UV (as complement of 32x32 Y); and 8x8 Y2 ever
only has 4 coefficients max. If preferred, I can add values of
other tables in their place (e.g. use 4x4 2nd order high-frequency
probabilities for 8x8 2nd order), so that they make at least some
sense if we ever implement a larger 2nd order transform for the
8x8 DCT (etc.), please let me know

As suggested by Yaowu, we can use eob to reduce the complexity
of the vp9_ihtllm_c function. For the 1080p test clip used, the decoder
performance improved by 17%.

Add a function clip_pixel() to clip a pixel value to the [0,255] range
of allowed values, and use this where-ever appropriate (e.g. prediction,
reconstruction). Likewise, consistently use the recently added function
clip_prob(), which calculates a binary probability in the [1,255] range.
If possible, try to use get_prob() or its sister get_binary_prob() to
calculate binary probabilities, for consistency.
Since in some places, this means that binary probability calculations
are changed (we use {255,256}*count0/(total) in a range of places,
and all of these are now changed to use 256*count0+(total>>1)/total),
this changes the encoding result, so this patch warrants some extensive
testing.

This commit changed the ENTROPY_CONTEXT conversion between MBs that
have different transform sizes.
In additioin, this commit also did a number of cleanup/bug fix:
1. removed duplicate function vp9_fix_contexts() and changed to use
vp8_reset_mb_token_contexts() for both encoder and decoder
2. fixed a bug in stuff_mb_16x16 where wrong context was used for
the UV.
3. changed reset all context to 0 if a MB is skipped to simplify the
logic.

In addition to allowing tests to use the RTCD-enabled functions (perhaps transitively)
without having run a full encode/decode test yet, this fixes a linking issue with
Apple's G++ whereby the Common symbols (the function pointers themselves) wouldn't
be resolved. Fixing this linking issue is the primary impetus for this patch, as none
of the tests exercise the RTCD functionality except through the main API.

Don't use vp9_decode_coefs_4x4() for 2nd order DC or luma blocks. The
code introduces some overhead which is unnecessary for these cases.
Also, remove variable declarations that are only used once, remove
magic offsets into the coefficient buffer (use xd->block[i].qcoeff
instead of xd->qcoeff + magic_offset), and fix a few Google Style
Guide violations.

Use these, instead of the 4/5-dimensional arrays, to hold statistics,
counts, accumulations and probabilities for coefficient tokens. This

This adds Debargha's DCT/DWT hybrid and a regular 32x32 DCT, and adds
code all over the place to wrap that in the bitstream/encoder/decoder/RD.
Some implementation notes (these probably need careful review):
- token range is extended by 1 bit, since the value range out of this
transform is [-16384,16383].
- the coefficients coming out of the FDCT are manually scaled back by
1 bit, or else they won't fit in int16_t (they are 17 bits). Because
of this, the RD error scoring does not right-shift the MSE score by
two (unlike for 4x4/8x8/16x16).
- to compensate for this loss in precision, the quantizer is halved
also. This is currently a little hacky.
- FDCT and IDCT is double-only right now. Needs a fixed-point impl.
- There are no default probabilities for the 32x32 transform yet; I'm
simply using the 16x16 luma ones. A future commit will add newly
generated probabilities for all transforms.
- No ADST version. I don't think we'll add one for this level; if an
ADST is desired, transform-size selection can scale back to 16x16
or lower, and use an ADST at that level.
Additional notes specific to Debargha's DWT/DCT hybrid:
- coefficient scale is different for the top/left 16x16 (DCT-over-DWT)
block than for the rest (DWT pixel differences) of the block. Therefore,
RD error scoring isn't easily scalable between coefficient and pixel
domain. Thus, unfortunately, we need to compute the RD distortion in
the pixel domain until we figure out how to scale these appropriately.
