vp9_block_error_sse2 can only handle 16 bytes at a time but
the function requires to handle a sequence of 32 bytes at a time
so each 16 bytes is handled in a different register.
With AVX2 optimization the 32 bytes can be handled in one register instead
of two in the SSE2
The vp9_block_error was optimized by 85%.
The user level was optimized by 1.2%

The various motion search functions share a
common function prototype. In the case of
vp9_full_range_search() two of the parameters
are not needed.

Simplify the calculation of KF bitrate in similar way
to previous patch for GF/arf.
This has no impact on derf or std hd sets but gives a
small net gain of ~0.1% for yt and yt-hd sets.

The variation in boost calculation for gf and arf groups
is not significant enough to justify the extra complexity.
Also removed some other spurious code that no longer
has much material impact.
The handling of the rare case, where the boost bits
number is less than the number of bits a that would
be allocated if a frame was not boosted, will be dealt
with in a subsequent patch.
This change actually helps on all sets a little by
~0.1% - 0.2% with slightly bigger gains on SSIM.

As a side-effect, the max_sad check is removed from the
C-implementation of VP8, for consistency with VP9, and to
ensure that the SAD tests common to VP8/VP9 pass.
That will make the VP8 C implementation of sad a little slower
but given that is rarely used in practice, the impact will be
minimal.

Allow slightly larger minq-maxq range for P frames. This improves
the compression performance of speed -5 for rtc set by 2.7% in psnr.

Inline loopfilter has been already handled in vp9_decode_frame().
Collecting all similar code in one place now.

Re-factor duplicate code.
Add two pass check for use of section_intra_rating as
it is un-initialised in the 1 pass and rt case.

One of a series of changes to clean up two pass
allocation as precursor to support for multiple arf
or boosted frames per GF/ARF group.
This change pulls out the calculation of the total bits
allocated to a GF/ARF group into a function, to aid
readability and reduce the line count for define_gf_group().
This change should have no material impact on output.

This commit enables a chessboard pattern for partition search. All
the black blocks run regular partition search ranging from 8x8 to
32x32. The rest white blocks take the nearby blocks' information
to adaptively decide the effective search range.
The compression performance for rtc set at speed -5 is down by 1.5%.
For pedestrian 1080p at speed -5, the runtime goes from 41594 ms to
39697 ms, i.e., about 5% faster.

tx_mode supercedes whatever mechanism is used to push for 16x16
allowing for the use of the 4x4 transform.

vp9_is_upper_layer_key_frame() definition does not match declaration--
it was missing the second const.
