This is still debugging in progress. Need further investigation to
understand the root cause of the issue.

Initial attempt at using new segment feature signaling
to indicate 4x4 or 8x8 transform.
needs --enable-experimental --enable-t8x8
Note this is work in progress.
Change-Id: Ib160d46a5d810307bfcbc79853ce1a65b5b870b7
Temporary check in to turn off other segment features
tests when #if CONFIG_T8X8 is set as the assignment of
MBs to differnt segments in each case will conflict.
The 8x8 code will be modified to use the new segment
feature method properly in a later check in.
Increase bits allowed for EOB end stop marker to 6 ready
for 8x8.

No change to functionality or output.
Updates to the segment feature data structure now all done
through functions such as set_segdata() and get_segdata()
in seg_common.c.
The reason for this is to make changing the structures (if needed)
and debug easier.
In addition it provides a single location for subsequent addition
of range and validity checks. For example valid combination of
mode and reference frame.

This commit tries to do UV intra mode coding adaptive to Y intra mode.
Entropy context is defined as conditional PDF of uv intra mode given
the Y mode. All constants are normalized with 256 to be fit in 8 bits.
This provides further coding efficiency beyond the quantizer adaptive
y intra mode coding. Consistent gains were observed on all clips and
all bit rates for HD all key encoding tests.
To test, configure with
--enable-experimental --enable-uvintra

Removal of configure #ifdefs so that segment features
always available. Removal of code supporting old
segment feature method.
Still a good deal of tidying up to do.

Modify reference frame segmentation so that ONE or MORE
reference frames may be marked as a available for a given
segment.
Fixed bugs relating to segment coding of INTRA and some
INTER modes at the segment level.
Modified Q boost for static areas based on ambient average Q.
Strong results now on clips with significant static areas.
(some data points in derf set as high as 9% and some static &
slide show type content in YT set > 20%)

Prior to the added rounding, tests on randomly generated data showed
that forward-inverse transform round trip errors are about 3.02/block
for input range [-10,10] and 2.68/block for input range [-256, 255].
The added rounding reduced the errors to 0.031/block for input range
[-10,10] and 0.037/block for input range [-256, 255].
Maximum round trip error on for any pixel position is 1.
The average errors are calculated based on 100,000 blocks of randomly
with the specified ranges.
Paul mentioned in discussion that the change was not clear on why we
need change the rounding, so Patch 2 intends to make the rationale
obvious in code, it merged the two separate shifts into one, and the
two separate rounding factors into one. Patch 1 and 2 have same
numerical test results.

Only encode sign bit for feature data that can have a sign.
Tweaks to the test segmentation rules so that it now actually gives
a net benefit on the derf set of about 0.4% though much higher
on some clips at the low end.

This quite large check in includes the following:
Merge in some code from Ronald (mbgraph.c) that scans a Gf/arf group.
This is used as a basis for a simple segmentation for the normal frames
in a gf/arf group. This code also uses satd functions from Yaowu.
Adds functionality for coding the latest possible position of an EOB for
blocks in the segment. (Currently 0-15 only, hence just for 4x4 dct).
Where the EOB position is 0 this acts like "skip" and the normal coding
of skip at the per mb level is disabled.
Added functions (seg_common.c) for setting and reading segment feature
elements. These may want to be optimized away at some point but while the
mecahnism is in a state of flux they provide a single location for making
changes and keep things a bit cleaner.
This is still proof of concept code. Currently the tested feature set:-
Quantizer,
Loop Filter level,
Reference frame,
Prediction Mode,
EOB end stop.
TBD:-
Add functions for setting and reading the feature data with range
and validity checking.
Handling of signed and unsigned feature data. At the moment all is assumed
to be signed and a sign bit is coded but many cannot be negative.
Correct handling of EOB feature with intra coded blocks.
Testing/trapping of legal/illegal ref frame and mode combinations.
Transform size switch plus merge and test with 8c8 DCT work
Merge and test with Sumans Segmenation coding optimizations

This commit added a 3 bit index to the bitstream, the index is used to
look into the intra mode coding entropy context table. The commit uses
the mode stats to calculate the cost of transmitting modes using 8
possible entropy distributions, and selects the distribution that
provides the lowest cost to do the actual mode coding.
Initial test show this provides additional .2%~.3% gain over quantizer
adaptive intra mode coding. So the adaptive intra mode coding provides
a total of .5%(psnr) to .6% gain(ssim) combined for all-key-encoding

Patch 1 to Patch 3 is an initial implementation of 8x8 intra prediction
modes, here are with the following assumptions:
a. 8x8 has 4 prediction modes DC, H, V and TM
b. UV 4x4 block use the same mode as corresponding 8x8 area
c. i8x8 modes are enabled for key frame only for now
Patch 4:
d. removed debug code from previous patches
Patch 5:
e. added stats code to collect entropy stats and further cleaned up
Patch 6:
f. changed mode stats code to collect finer stats of modes
Patch 7:
g. normalized i8x8 modes distribution to total at 256 (8bits).
Patch 8:
h. fixed a bug in decoder and removed debug printf output.
Patch 9:
i. more cleanups to address paul's comment
Patch 10:
j. messy rebase/merges to bring the commit up to date.
Tests on HD clips encoded with all key frame showing consistent gain

This data structure is now [Segment ID][Features]
rather than [Features][Segment_ID]
I propose as a separate modification to make the experimental
bit stream reflect this such that all the features for a segment
are coded together.

Some basic plumbing added for a range of segment level features.
MB_LVL_* changed to SEG_LVL_* to better reflect meaning.

for SPLITMV and B_PRED modes. Modified code to use the bmi
found in mode_info_context instead of BLOCKD. On the decode
side, the uvmvs are calculated only when required, instead of
every macroblock. This is WIP. (bmi should eventually be
removed from BLOCKD)
Small performance gains noticed for RT encodes and decodes.(VGA)

The data that the simple horizontal loopfilter reads is aligned, treat
it accordingly.
For the vertical, we only use the bottom 4 bytes, so don't read in 16
(and incur the penalty for unaligned access).
This shows a small improvement on older processors which have a
significant penalty for unaligned reads.
postproc_mmx.c is unused

Prepend . to local labels in assembly code. This
allows non unique labels within a file. Also
makes profiling information more informative

When active map is specified and the current frame is not a key frame,
golden frame nor a altref frame then copy only those active regions.
This significantly reduces encoding time by as much as 19% on the test
system where realtime encoding is used. This is particularly useful
when the frame size is large (e.g. 2560x1600) and there's only a few
action macroblocks.

In sub-pixel motion search, the search range is small(+/- 3 pixels).
Preload whole search area from reference buffer into a 32-byte
aligned buffer. Then in search, load reference data from this buffer
instead. This keeps data in cache, and reduces the crossing cache-
line penalty. For tulip clip, tests on Intel Core2 Quad machine(linux)
showed encoder speed improvement:
3.4% at --rt --cpu-used =-4
2.8% at --rt --cpu-used =-3
2.3% at --rt --cpu-used =-2
2.2% at --rt --cpu-used =-1
Test on Atom notebook showed only 1.1% speed improvement(speed=-4).
Test on Xeon machine also showed less improvement, since unaligned
data access latency is greatly reduced in newer cores.
Next, I will apply similar idea to other 2 sub-pixel search functions
for encoding speed > 4.
Make this change exclusively for x86 platforms.
