not currently used and no plan to use in near future.

Added casts to remove warnings:
BUG=webm:1274
In regards to the safety of these casts they are of two types:-
- Normalized bits per (16x16) MB stored in a 32 bit int (This is safe as bits
per MB even with << 9 normalization cant overflow 32 bits. Even raw 12
bits hdr source even would only be 29 bits :- (4+4+12+9) and the encoder
imposes much stricter limits than this on max bit rate.
- Cast as part of variance calculations. There is an internal cast up to 64 bit
for the Sum X Sum calculation, but after normalization dividing by the number
of points the result will always be <= the SSE value.

Using a tighter resize constraint on undershoot seems to help
results (especially SSIM) as significant undershoot on a frame
seems to have more of a damaging impact than overshoot.
This patch has been tuned so that in local testing using the
derf set it is encode speed neutral for speed setting 2.
Average quality result for speed 2 (psnr,ssim) were as follows:-
lowres 0.039, 0.453
midres 0.249, 0.853
hdres 0.159, 0.659
NetFlix -0.241, 0.360

This patch is to address concerns that changes to allow
recodes on the first frame in each ARF group do not give a
good enough speed quality trade off for speed 2. Though the
average impact on encode speed is 1-2%, for some hard clips
it is > 5% rise. For speed 1 this is less an issue and for Speed 0
the previous patch actually improves speed.

This corrects a formatting error introduced in:
I1e9d548ce445d29002f0c59ebfd3957a6f15e702
where spaces were used as delimiters instead of tabs.
The corresponding fix for vp10 is in

Current commit is just an API template for the rest of the code, and
I will add inner logic later.
Altref frames generate a lot of bitrate and at the same time
other frames refer to them a lot, so it makes sense to apply
special compensation-based adaptive quantization scheme for altref
frames. E.g., for blocks that are good predictors for the future
apply rate-control chosen quantizer while for bad predictors apply
worse one.

Previously Tx domain rd was used in all cases above speed 0.
Coefficient optimization was only enabled for best and speed 0.
This patch selectively sets these features at other speed settings
based on block complexity.
For the Netflix and HD sets in particular the quality gains are
large compared to the speed hit. At speed 1 the average psnr
gain in the NF set is > 2.5% with one clip coming in at 18%
and some points almost 30%. Average gains for the lower
resolution test sets are around 1%.
The gains are biggest at low Q so some further optimization
may be possible.

In the future this option will activate adaptive quantization special
for altref frames. Encoder will create the adaptive quantization map
on the basis of lookahead buffers similarity which is the estimate of
the future motion compensation performance.

Disabled the split mode while encoding 4k video to speed
up the encoder.
Borg test result on 4k set:
Overall PSNR: +0.029%; SSIM: +0.009%.
Average encoder speedup at speed 2 is 2.5%.
Change-Id: I1519c658f07c3ac838affbe5aff0ed9b94f3f8f4
Adjusted speed 2 features to speed up 4k video encoding.
BDBR results from borg test:

Bias towards base_mv and skip 1/4 pixel motion search when using base mv.
2~3% speed up for 2 spatial layers, 3~5% speed up for 3 spatial layers.
PSNR loss:
(2 layers) 0.07dB for gips_stationary, 0.04dB for gips_motion;
(3 layers) 0.07dB for gips_stationary, 0.06dB for gips_motion.

Add option, for newmv-last, to limit the rd-threshold update for early exit,
under a source varianace condition.
This can improve visual quality in low texture moving areas,
like forehead/faces.
Also add bias against golden to improve the speed/fps,
will little/negligible loss in quality.
Only affects CBR mode, non-svc, non-screen-content.

Changes the default recode rule for Speed 0 and best quality
from ALLOW_RECODE to ALLOW_RECODE_KFARFGF.
Tested on the NF, hdres, midres and lowres test sets, this setting
when combined with patch I40cb559... now performs "as well" in
metrics terms (in fact it came out a tiny amount better overall)
but encode time is 9.6% faster (measured as the average
from 27 mid rate local encodes on clips in the derf/lowres set.
Change-Id: I8c781c0cdfa3a9929cd9406d15582fce47d6ae3b
Allow recodes for the first inter frame in each arf group

This patch fixed a motion vector out of range bug:
vpxenc: ../libvpx/vp9/encoder/vp9_mcomp.c:69:
mv_cost: Assertion `mv->col >= -((1 << (11 + 1 + 2)) - 1) &&
mv->col < ((1 << (11 + 1 + 2)) - 1)' failed.
For blocks that returned without having full-pixel search, the original
MV limits were not restored, which caused the failure. Moved the set
MV limit function down to fix the bug.

This patch fixed a motion vector(MV) out of range bug, which was caused
by not restoring the original values of the MV min/max thresholds after
the sub8x8 full pixel motion search. It occurred rarely and only was seen
while encoding a 4k clip for 200 frames.
