With the sad functions, and hopefully the variance functions soon,
moving to the vpx_dsp location, place the defines used in the
reference C code in a common location.

This patch greatly increase the strength of AQ1.
Visual tests show strong gains on many clips but their is a big
hit on psnr.
SSIM is more mixed with some winners and losers.

Make the midpoint variance used in AQ mode 1 segmentation
depend on the overall complexity of the frame in two pass.

Add an additional restriction to bit/complexity based
segmentation based on spatial variance.
Only lower Q when both the number of bits spent
in the initial encoding pass and the spatial complexity are
below a threshold. This will prevent the low Q segments
being used just because there is a surfeit of bits.
Small metrics gains especially opsnr.

This is the first of a series of patches to restructure and
improve AQ mode 1 (variance based AQ).

vp9_rdopt is for making rd optimal mode decisions. vp9_rd is for all
other rd related routines. Anything used outside of making an rd optimal
decision belongs in rd.
