Adds two new vp9 parameters --min-gf-interval and --max-gf-interval
to enable testing based on frequency of alt-ref frames.
Also adds a unit-test to test enforcement of min-gf-interval.
For both these parameters the default value is 0, which indicates
they are picked by the encoder, based on resolution and framerate
considerations. If they are greater than zero, the specified
parameter is honored.
(Additional note by paulwilkins)
Note that there is a slight oddity in that key frames are also GFs and
considered part of GF only group. However they are treated as not
being part of an arf group because for arf groups the previous GF is
assumed to be the terminal or overlay frame for the previous group.

For content that is identified as likely to contain some
animation or graphics content, increase the availability
of split modes for good quality speeds 1-3.
On a problem test animation clip this improves metrics
results by about 0.25 db and makes a noticeable difference
visually. It also causes a small drop in file size (~0.5%) but
a rise in encode time of about 5-6% at speed 2.
For more normal content it should have no effect.

This patch addresses two issues that can occur when the
encoder chooses to use a mixture of ARF and GF groups.
The first issue relates to a failure to reset the "ARF active" flag
correctly when transitioning from coding ARF groups to coding
GF groups. This caused some golden frames to be encoded
with an incorrect bit rate target as if they were ARF overlay frames.
The second issue relates to the encoding of a single short GF group
just before a key frame. Where the last group before a key frame
is an ARF group we expect the final frame before the key frame to
be an low data rate overlay frame. However, when the last group
is a GF group, the final frame before the key frame should be a normal
frame with a normal bit allocation. This issue had the potential to cause
a single poorly coded frame just before a key frame. If that key frame
were a forced key frame rather than a real scene cut, this might cause
pulsing.

Testing on another rate control patch reveals that in some
situations, where the encoder is flipping in and out of arf
mode, we get an encoder decoder mismatch.
Whilst it is still not clear why, skipping the last buffer
update seems to trigger the problem. Until I can establish
why, or if there is another underlying cause, I am reverting
this change.
This reverts commit e5112b3ae3.

Where a frame appears to be a repeat of an earlier
frame or frame buffer, but the first pass code
does not anticipate this (usually because it is matching
the GF or ARF buffer not the last frame buffer), do not
update the last frame buffer.
This helps ensure that the content of the last frame buffer
is kept "different" where possible, and not updated to
match the GF or ARF. This is particularly helpful in some
animated sequences where there are groups of repeating
frames. Here it has quite a big impact. However, in most
of our standard test clips it has little or no impact.

Note: This feature is still in development.
Add an option for the encoder to decide the resolution
at which to encode each frame.
Each KF/GF/ARF goup is tested to see if it would be
better encoded at a lower resolution. At present, each
KF/GF/ARF is coded first at full-size and if the coded
size exceeds a threshold (twice target data rate) at
the maximum active Q then the entire group is encoded
at lower resolution.
This feature is enabled in vpxenc by setting:
--resize-allowed=1
In addition, if the vpxenc command line also specifies
valid frame dimensions using:
--resize-width=XXXX & --resize_height=YYYY
then *all* frames will be encoded at this resolution.

In frame parallel decode, libvpx decoder decodes several frames on all
cpus in parallel fashion. If not being flushed, it will only return frame
when all the cpus are busy. If getting flushed, it will return all the
frames in the decoder. Compare with current serial decode mode in which
libvpx decoder is idle between decode calls, libvpx decoder is busy
between decode calls.
Current frame parallel decode will only speed up the decoding for frame
parallel encoded videos. For non frame parallel encoded videos, frame
parallel decode is slower than serial decode due to lack of loopfilter
worker thread.
There are still some known issues that need to be addressed. For example:
decode frame parallel videos with segmentation enabled is not right sometimes.

3. Merged multi-threaded loopfilter code, and made encoder/

Encoder tests showed that 1% - 2% speedup was seen for good-quality

The vp9_denoiser_free() function will internally check if the
buffer pointers are NULL. This commit makes the encoder always
call vp9_denoiser_free() after finishing encoding. It protects the
case where noise_sensitivity_level is changed during encoding
process and happen to be turned off towards the end of sequence,
which could result memory space allocated to denoiser not being
released.
