NEON has optimized 16x16 half-pixel variance functions, but they
were not part of the RTCD framework. Add these functions to RTCD,
so that other platforms can make use of this optimization in the
future and special-case ARM code can be removed.
A number of functions were taking two variance functions as
parameters. These functions were changed to take a single
parameter, a pointer to a struct containing all the variance
functions for that block size. This provides additional flexibility
for calling additional variance functions (the half-pixel special
case, for example) and by initializing the table for all block sizes,
we don't have to construct this function pointer table for each
macroblock.

Most of the code that actually uses these matrices indexes them as
if they were a single contiguous array, and coverity produces
reports about the resulting accesses that overflow the static
bounds of the first row.
This is perfectly legal in C, but converting them to actual [16]
arrays should eliminate the report, and removes a good deal of
extraneous indexing and address operators from the code.

The first implementation of the firstpass motion map for motion
compensated temporal filtering created a file, fpmotionmap.stt,
in the current working directory. This was not safe for multiple
encoder instances. This patch merges this data into the first pass
stats packet interface, so that it is handled like the other
(numerical) firstpass stats.
The new stats packet is defined as follows:
Numerical Stats (16 doubles) -- 128 bytes
Motion Map -- 1 byte / Macroblock
Padding -- to align packet to 8 bytes
The fpmotionmap.stt file can still be generated for debugging
purposes in the same way that the textual version of the stats
are available (defining OUTPUT_FPF in firstpass.c)

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.

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.

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.

Modified AltRef temporal filter to adapt filter length based
on macroblock coding modes selected during first-pass
encode.
Also added sub-pixel motion compensation to the AltRef
filter.
Changes 'The VP8 project' to 'The WebM project', for consistency
with other webmproject.org repositories.
Fixes issue #97.

In two pass encodes, the calculation of the number of bits
allocated to a KF group had the potential to overflow for high data
rates if the interval is very long.
We observed the problem in one test clip where there was one
section where there was an 8000 frame gap between key frames.

This replaces the approximate division-by-multiplication in the
quantizer with an exact one that costs just one add and one
shift extra.
The asm versions have not been updated in this patch, and thus
have been disabled, since the new method requires different
multipliers which are not compatible with the old method.

When the license headers were updated, they accidentally contained
trailing whitespace, so unfortunately we have to touch all the files
again.

This patch addresses issue #79, which is a regression since commit
28de670 "Fix RD bug." If the coded error value is zero, the iiratio
calculation effectively multiplies by 1000000 by the
DOUBLE_DIVIDE_CHECK macro. This can result in a value larger than
INT_MAX, giving a negative ratio. Since the error values are
conceptually unsigned (though they're stored in a double) this patch
makes the iiratio values unsigned, which allows the clamping to work
as expected.
This renames the vpx_codec/ directory to vpx/, to allow applications
to more consistently reference these includes with the vpx/ prefix.
This allows the includes to be installed in /usr/local/include/vpx
rather than polluting the system includes directory with an
excessive number of includes.
