-Increase the amount of mbs to be refreshed.
-Replace the delta qp with a fixed and reduced delta.
-Change to the mb update loop to try to always update same amount of mbs.

This change is necessary for the frame-based multithreading
implementation.
Since the postproc occurs in this call, vpxdec was modified to time around
vpx_codec_get_frame()
Change-Id: I389acf78b6003cd35e41becc16c893f7d3028523
Initialize the top line at the beginning of each frame and
the left column at the beginning of each row.

Multiple decoders were getting allocated per frame.
If the decoder crashed we exitted with out freeing
them and the next time in we'd allocate over.
This fix removes the allocation and just has 8
boolcoders in the pbi structure

If the decoder crashes and returned an error before it set up
block offsets but after it set up frame buffers. We had a
problem decoding the next keyframe because the block offsets
were never set.

Adjusts some of the qualification thresholds in mfqe to eliminate
artifacts due to wrong decisions. Besides, a new qualification
criteria is used to disable mfqe if the quality of the previous
frame is itself not too good.

The denoiser function was modified to reduce the computational
complexity.
1. The denoiser c function modification:
The original implementation calculated pixel's filter_coefficient
based on the pixel value difference between current raw frame and last
denoised raw frame, and stored them in lookup tables. For each pixel c,
find its coefficient using
filter_coefficient[c] = LUT[abs_diff[c]];
and then apply filtering operation for the pixel.
The denoising filter costed about 12% of encoding time when it was
turned on, and half of the time was spent on finding coefficients in
lookup tables. In order to simplify the process, a short cut was taken.
The pixel adjustments vs. pixel diff value were calculated ahead of time.
adjustment = filtered_value - current_raw
= (filter_coefficient * diff + 128) >> 8
The adjustment vs. diff curve becomes flat very quick when diff increases.
This allowed us to use only several levels to get a close approximation
of the curve. Following the denoiser algorithm, the adjustments are
further modified according to how big the motion magnitude is.
2. The sse2 function was rewritten.
This change made denoiser filter function 3x faster, and improved the
encoder performance by 7% ~ 10% with the denoiser on.

For videos with big static background(such as video conferencing
clips), the mode decision was biased to ZEROMV in order to
obtain a stable background. The percentage of ZEROMV on last
frame was used to predict if there is static area in current frame,
and checking already-encoded neighboring macroblocks' motion
vectors to make sure the local area has low motion.

The current way of counting inter_zz_count doesn't work correctly
in multi-threaded encoding. Calculating it after the frame is
encoded fixed the problem.

Loop filter producing wierd artifacts when

using large values for the timebase, e.g., {33333, 1000000} could
rollover the timestamp calculation in vp8e_encode as it was not using
64-bit math.

Interleaved loopfiltering with decode. For 1080p clips, up to 1%
performance gain. For 4k clips, up to 10% seen. This patch is required
for better "frame-based" multithreading.

The sync interval for the multithreaded encoder was considered as not changing
during the encoding. This is not true if picture size is changed.
The encoder could dead-lock because the main thread and the other threads were
using different sync interval.

After the picture size was changed to a bigger one, the internal memory was
corrupted and multithreaded encoder was deadlocking.
Memory for last frame's MVs, segmentation map and active map were allocated when
the compressor was created (vp8_create_compressor). Buffers need to be
reallocated when picture size is changed, so, the allocation was moved to
vp8_alloc_compressor_data, which is called every time the picture is resized.

The ambient qp and active worse/best qp were reset for every frame
when temporal layers is on. This change removes this reset.
As this affects the target size for forced key frames
(it will actually lower the size somewhat), we increased the
inital boost factor to compensate.

SAD returns unsigned values. Make all the declarations the same.
Remove bestsad initialization and check. It is always set to the
result of a SAD call so it will never remain UINT_MAX
Use ja instead of jg to test unsigned comparison instead of signed.
Update test.
