This commit extends the sse and forward transform computation flag
to support the case 64x64 blocks where there are 4 32x32 2D-DCT
blocks.

In order to understand memory layout consider the declaration of the
following structs. The first one is a part of our API:
struct vpx_codec_ctx {
// ...
struct vpx_codec_priv *priv;
};
The second one is defined in vpx_codec_internal.h:
struct vpx_codec_priv {
// ...
};
The following struct is defined 4 times for encoder/decoder VP8/VP9:
struct vpx_codec_alg_priv {
struct vpx_codec_priv base;
// ...
};
Private data allocation for the given ctx:
struct vpx_codec_ctx *ctx = <get>
struct vpx_codec_alg_priv *alg_priv = <allocate>
ctx->priv = (struct vpx_codec_priv *)alg_priv;
The cast works because vpx_codec_alg_priv has a
vpx_codec_priv instance as a first member 'base'.

In the partition search, the encoder checks all possible
partitionings in the superblock's partition search tree.
This patch proposed a set of criteria for partition search
early termination, which effectively decided whether or
not to terminate the search in current branch based on the
"skippable" result of the quantized transform coefficients.
The "skippable" information was gathered during the
partition mode search, and no overhead calculations were
introduced.
This patch gives significant encoding speed gains without
sacrificing the quality.
Borg test results:
1. At speed 1,
stdhd set: psnr: +0.074%, ssim: +0.093%;
derf set: psnr: -0.024%, ssim: +0.011%;
2. At speed 2,
stdhd set: psnr: +0.033%, ssim: +0.100%;
derf set: psnr: -0.062%, ssim: +0.003%;
3. At speed 3,
stdhd set: psnr: +0.060%, ssim: +0.190%;
derf set: psnr: -0.064%, ssim: -0.002%;
4. At speed 4,
stdhd set: psnr: +0.070%, ssim: +0.143%;
derf set: psnr: -0.104%, ssim: +0.039%;
The speedup ranges from several percent to 60+%.

Updates the vp9_pattern_search function to return integer one-away
neighbors' sad values, for subsequent use in speeding up the
sub-pel search. Also, removes code for the do_refine option
which is not being used currently.
Updates the integer and subpel functions to pass in a 5-element
sad list for output or input.
A new pruned sub-pel search algorithm is implemented that uses
the sad returned from the integer pel search. But it is not
deployed yet.

this change is proactive: the loop filter expects valid input and may
produce undefined results / crash in other cases.

attempting to decode a frame after the previous frame failed has the
potential of interrupting an earlier loop filter task

This commit re-work the operation flow related to prediction
residual generation and the rate-distortion modeling. It saves one
call for model_rd_for_sb.

The value of switchable rate has been stored in a local variable.
This change skips the second call to vp9_get_switchable_rate() by
reusing the local variable.

Check the mode and motion vector cost. If it is already above
the existing best rate-distortion cost, skip the rest check process
on this mode.

This commit makes the rate distortion modeling run in the unit of
maximum transform block size. No compression/speed change observed.
It is for the use of later fast forward transform purpose.

if the first frame was corrupt and loop filter not called, the next call
would assume the necessary allocations had been done and segfault when
accessing a NULL pointer

This commit addes a new strategy to reduce the search for optimal
interpolation filter type. The encoder counts and store how many each
filter type is selected and used for each of the reference frames.
A filter type that is rarely used for all three reference frames is
masked out to avoid computation.
The impact on compression is neglectible:
-0.02% on derf
+0.02% on stdhd
Encoding time is seen to reduce by 2~3%.
