This rewriting reflects changes made in commit "Improve the
accuracy of forward walsh-hadamard transform". Since this function
is not called much, only a small encoder performance gain (~0.5% )
is seen.

Instead of doing 8-bit data unpack and 16-bit subtraction, use
psubb to do 16 8-bit subtractions and pcmpgtb to preserve the
sign information. This does not bring noticable gain since
these functions are not called frequently.

vp8_diamond_search_sadx4 isn't used in arm because there is no
corrosponding sdx4df as in x86. rather than keep it in sync with
../mcomp.c, delete it
vp8_hex_search had the original, more readable/understandable code if`d
out. it's also available in ../mcomp.c, so remove the dead copy

when a subsequent frame is encoded as an alt reference frame, it is
unlikely that any mb in current frame will be used as reference for
future frames, so we can enable quantization optimization even when
the RD constant is slightly rate-biased. The change has an overall
benefit between 0.1% to 0.2% bit savings on the test sets based on
vpxssim scores.

In order to know if all 4/8 neighbor points are within the bounds,
4 bounds checking are enough instead of checking 4 bounds for
each points (16/32 checkings). This improvement reduces cost of
vp8_diamond_search_sadx4() by 30%, and gives encoder a 1.5%
performance gain (test options: 1 pass, good, speed=4).

This patch moves the scattered updates to the mb skip state
(mode_info_context->mbmi.mb_skip_coeff) to vp8_tokenize_mb. Recent
changes to the quantizer exposed a bug where if a macroblock
could be coded as a skip but isn't, the encoder would run the
loopfilter but the decoder wouldn't, causing a reference buffer
mismatch.
The loopfilter is controlled by a flag called dc_diff. The decoder
looks at the number of decoded coefficients when setting this flag.
The encoder sets this flag based on the skip state, since any
skippable macroblock should be transmitted as a skip. The coefficient
optimization pass (vp8_optimize_b()) could change the coefficients
such that a block that was not a skip becomes one. The encoder was
not updating the skip state in this situation for intra coded blocks.
The underlying issue predates it, but this bug was recently triggered
by enabling trellis quantization on the Y2 block in commit dcd29e3,
and by changing the quantizer range control in commit 305be4e.

This uses MB variance to change the RDO weight for mode decision
and quantization.
Activity is normalized against the average for the frame, which is
currently tracked using feed-forward statistics.
This could also be used to adjust the quantizer for the entire
frame, but that requires more extensive rate control changes.
This does not yet attempt to adapt the quantizer within the frame,
but the signaling cost means that will likely only be useful at
very high rates.

These functions should never change their input, and there's no
reason not to declare that.
This allows them to be passed static const data.

There is currently no inexact version of this function, so do not
even compile it without EXACT_QUANT.
This will prevent someone from inadvertently trying to use it without
the proper EXACT_QUANT setup.

This is just eliminating some cruft.
Although a number of variables are declared only when INTRARDOPT
is defined, they are used elsewhere without that protection, and
no longer just for intra RDO.
The intra_rd_opt flag was hard-coded to 1 and never checked.

An earlier automatic transform changed eg '\nOptions' to '\n_options'
which is incorrect in these printfs. Fix these.

quantize_sse2.asm and renamed. Updated the assembly code to
match the C version.

As the zbin and rounding constants are normalized, rounding effectively
does the zbinning, therefore the zbin operation can be removed. In
addition, the memset on the two arrays are no longer necessary.

yasm has to be preferred as currently nasm produces marginally less
efficient code (longer opcodes). Filed for nasm as:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=106208&aid=3037462&group_id=6208
OTOH package should be built always the same, no matter which additional
packages are / are not present on the system. As the package should be
built with nasm (as yasm may not be available) we should not use yasm
even if it is possibly available.
nasm >= approx. 2.09 is required for the nasm compilation as the former
versions had a section alignment bug.
Provide nasm compatibility. No binary change by this patch with yasm on
{x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu. Few longer opcodes with nasm on
{x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu have been checked as safe.

nasm just does not accept any size parameter for movhps:

Some parts of libvpx already use MMWORD for movhps and MMWORD is
defined-out so it is compatible both with yasm and nasm.

nasm requires the instruction length (movd/movq) to match to its
parameters. I find it more clear to really use 64bit instructions when
we use 64bit registers in the assembly.

Raised by Lei Yang, the Y plane stride was used for UV blocks.
This is clearly a typo. But as the comments in the code suggested
that this port of code has not been used yet, so the typo should
not have created any damage yet.

This code adjust the impact of the amount and speed of motion
on GF and KF boost.
Sections with lots of slow motion will tend to have a
somewhat bigger boost and sections with fast motion may
have less.
There is a knock on effect to the selection of the active
quantizer range.
This will likely require further tuning but helps with a couple
of particularly bad edge cases.

Experimented with different value for Y2_RD_MULT ranging f[1, 32],

4 works out best among all values, providing overall 0.1% coding
