This commit turns on the Hadamard transform based rate distortion
estimate for all block sizes in RTC coding mode. It conditionally
skips the rate distortion estimation if all zero block flag is set
on. No significant encoding speed change is observed. The
compression performance of speed -6 is improved by 1.7% over using
it only for block sizes of 32x32 and below.

The threshold scaling factor was calculated wrong using partition
size "bsize". Thank Yaowu for pointing it out. It was fixed and no
speed change was seen.

This commit accounts for the transform block end of coefficient flag
cost in the RTC mode decision process. This allows a more precise
rate estimate. It also turns on the model to block sizes up to 32x32.
The test sequences shows about 3% - 5% speed penalty for speed -6.
The average compression performance improvement for speed -6 is
1.58% in PSNR. The compression gains for hard clips like jimredvga,
mmmoving, and tacomascmv at low bit-rate range are 1.8%, 2.1%, and
3.2%, respectively.

The vbp thresholds are set seperately for boosted/non-boosted
superblocks according to their segment_id. This way we don't
have to force the boosted blocks to split to 32x32.
Speed 6 RTC set borg test result showed some quality gains.
Overall PSNR: +0.199%; Avg PSNR: +0.245%; SSIM: +0.802%.
No speed change was observed.

To enable us to the scale-invariant motion estimation
code during mode selection, each of the reference
buffers is scaled to match the size of the frame
being encoded.
This fix ensures that a unit scaling factor is used in
this case rather than the one calculated assuming that
the reference frame is not scaled.

This commit separates Hadamard transform/quantization operations
from rate and distortion computation in block_yrd. This allows one
to skip SATD computation when all transform blocks are quantized
to zero. It also uses a new block error function that skips
repeated computation of sum of squared residuals. It reduces the
CPU cycles spent on block error calculation in block_yrd by 40%.

This commit allows the quantizer to compare the AC coefficients to
the quantization step size to determine if further multiplication
operations are needed. It makes the quantization process 20% faster
without coding statistics change.

For large partition blocks(block_size > 32x32), the variance
calculation is modified so that every 8x8 block's variance
is stored during the calculation, which is used in the
following transform skipping test. Also, the variance for
every tx block is calculated. The skipping test checks all tx
blocks in the partition, and sets the skip flag only if all tx
blocks are skippable. If the skip flag of Y plane is 1, a
quick evaluation is done on UV planes. If the current partition
block is skippable in YUV planes, the mode search checks fewer
inter modes and doesn't check intra modes.
The rtc set borg test(at speed 6) showed that:
Overall psnr: -0.527%; Avg psnr: -0.510%; ssim: -0.573%.
Average single-thread speedup on rtc set was 3.5%.
For 720p clips, more speedups were seen.
