This is a short term optimization till we work out a decoder
implementation requiring no frame border extension.

The part where we align it by 8 or 16 is an implementation detail that
shouldn't matter to the outside world.

This is a mostly-working implementation of an extra channel in the
bitstream. Configure with --enable-alpha to test. Notable TODOs:
- Add extra channel to all mismatch tests, PSNR, SSIM, etc
- Configurable subsampling
- Variable number of planes (currently always uses all 4)
- Loop filtering
- Per-plane lossless quantizer
- ARNR support
This implementation just uses the same contents as the Y channel
for the A channel, due to lack of content and general pain in
playing back 4 channel content. A later patch will use the actual
alpha channel passed in from outside the codec.

Adds a subsampling aware border extension function. This may be reworked
soon to support more than 3 planes.

Make framebuffer allocations according to the chroma subsamping
factors in use. A bit is placed in the raw part of the frame header for
each of the two subsampling factors. This will be moved in a future
commit to make them part of the TBD feature set bits, probably only set
on keyframes, etc.

Updates the YV12_BUFFER_CONFIG structure to be crop-aware. The
exiting width/height parameters are left unchanged, storing the
width and height algined to a 16 byte boundary. The cropped
dimensions are added as new fields.
This fixes a nasty visual pulse when switching between scaled and
unscaled frame dimensions due to a mismatch between the scaling
ratio and the 16-byte aligned sizes.

As long as the new frame is smaller than the size that was originally
allocated, we don't need to free and reallocate the memory allocated.
Instead, do the allocation on the size of the first frame. We could
make this passed in from the application instead, if we wanted to
support external upscaling.

Only declare the functions in vpx_scale RTCD and include the relevant
header.
Remove unused files and functions in vpx_scale to avoid wasting time
renaming. vpx_scale/win32/scaleopt.c contains functions which have not
been called in a long time but are potentially optimized.
The 'vp8' functions have not been renamed yet. That is for after the
cleanup.

This is a code snapshot of experimental work currently ongoing for a
next-generation codec.
The codebase has been cut down considerably from the libvpx baseline.
For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control
and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading,
error resilience, partitions and various other features. This is in
part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but
also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream
will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation
constrained by past work.
Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments
using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the
code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that
they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments,
we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in.
Current changes include:
* Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it
will likely be increased).
* Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to
be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode
and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and
transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set
is very fluid.
* Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used
in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames.
* Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors
to create a new predictor).
* 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors.
* Loop filter modifications.
* Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and
updates are handled.
* Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements.
There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the
near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the
prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger
block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding
options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be
able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community
contributions.
Please be warned that, at this stage, the codebase is currently slower
than VP8 stable branch as most new code has not been optimized, and
even the 'C' has been deliberately written to be simple and obvious,
not fast.
The following graphs have the initial test results, numbers in the
tables measure the compression improvement in terms of percentage. The
build has the following optional experiments configured:
--enable-experimental --enable-enhanced_interp --enable-uvintra
--enable-high_precision_mv --enable-sixteenth_subpel_uv

This is done by expanding luma row to 32-byte alignment, since
there is currently a bunch of code that assumes that
uv_stride == y_stride/2 (see, for example, vp8/common/postproc.c,
common/reconinter.c, common/arm/neon/recon16x16mb_neon.asm,
encoder/temporal_filter.c, and possibly others; I haven't done a
full audit).
It also uses replaces the hardcoded border of 16 in a number of
encoder buffers with VP8BORDERINPIXELS (currently 32), as the
chroma rows start at an offset of border/2.
Together, these two changes have the nice advantage that simply
dumping the frame memory as a contiguous blob produces a valid,
if padded, image.

Previously allocated more memory than necessary for yuv buffers.
This makes it harder to track bugs with reading uninitialized
data.

A large number of functions were defined with external linkage, even
though they were only used from within one file. This patch changes
their linkage to static and removes the vp8_ prefix from their names,
which should make it more obvious to the reader that the function is
contained within the current translation unit. Functions that were
not referenced were removed.
These symbols were identified by:
$ nm -A libvpx.a | sort -k3 | uniq -c -f2 | grep ' [A-Z] ' \
| sort | grep '^ *1 '

A new vpx_codec_control called VP8D_GET_FRAME_CORRUPTED. The output
from the function is non-zero if the last decoded frame contains
corruption due to packet losses.
The decoder is also modified to accept encoded frames of zero length.
A zero length frame indicates to the decoder that one or more frames
have been completely lost. This will mark the last decoded reference
buffer as corrupted. The data pointer can be NULL if the length is
zero.

This eliminates a large set of warnings exposed by the Mozilla build
system (Use of C++ comments in ISO C90 source, commas at the end of
enum lists, a couple incomplete initializers, and signed/unsigned
comparisons).
It also eliminates many (but not all) of the warnings expose by newer
GCC versions and _FORTIFY_SOURCE (e.g., calling fread and fwrite
without checking the return values).
There are a few spurious warnings left on my system:
../vp8/encoder/encodemb.c:274:9: warning: 'sz' may be used
uninitialized in this function
gcc seems to be unable to figure out that the value shortcut doesn't
change between the two if blocks that test it here.
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5314:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
../vp8/encoder/onyx_if.c:5319:5: warning: comparison of unsigned
expression >= 0 is always true
This is true, so far as it goes, but it's comparing against an enum, and the C
standard does not mandate that enums be unsigned, so the checks can't be
removed.
