Also make some minor stylistic changes to bring the code closer to
the style guide. Remove distinction between inter and intra transform
functions, since both do exactly the same thing except for the check
against SPLITMV for the second-order transform. Remove some commented
out debug code. Remove 8x8/16x16 transform code in encode_inter16x16y(),
since the first-pass only uses 4x4 anyway.

Also make some minor stylistic changes to bring the code closer to
the style guide. Remove checks against i8x8/bpred in the mb-codepath,
since these do individual block reconstruction and thus don't go through
this codepath.

This includes trellis optimization, forward/inverse transform,

Entropy coding takes care of this anyway, and this causes changes to
the txfm size assigned to skip blocks, which can affect the loopfilter
output, thus causing encoder/decoding mismatches.

Use the common update_skip_probs() function rather than duplicating its
logic in write_kf_modes().

This commit fixes unsafe simd / floating point interactions arising
from the current hybrid and 16x16 transform implementation.
These led to a raft of bugs and issues when the project was
built using VS2008 for Win32 though they did not show up with
the unix builds.
Gerrit makes a meal out of presenting the fix but all I have actually
done is indent the body of each function that uses floating point by
one level and bracket with emms instructions using the function
vp8_clear_system_state(). See below.
function () {
vp8_clear_system_state();
{
... function body
}
vp8_clear_system_state();
}
This is almost certainly over the top in terms of number of emms
instructions but is a temporary measure pending implementation of
integer variants of each function to replace the floating point.
Limited testing suggests that this fixes the problems that arose for
Win32 VS2008 when the hybrid or 16x16 transforms were enabled.

Separates the entropy coding context models for 4x4, 8x8 and 16x16
ADST variants.
There is a small improvement for HD (hd/std-hd) by about 0.1-0.2%.
Results on derf/yt are about the same, probably because there is not
enough statistics.
Results may improve somewhat once the initial probability tables are
updated for the hybrid transforms which is coming soon.

With this change, even if hybridtransform8x8 experiment is off,
8x8 dct is used for the I8x8 mode. However note that the gains
observed with the hybridtransform8x8 experiment will now be less,
since part of the gain is now merged in.

The commit changed to use 3 rows above and 3 cols from left for SAD
scoring for selecting the best reference motion vector. The change
helped std-hd set by >.2% on psnr/ssim metrics.

The high-precision (1/8) pel bit is turned off if the reference
MV is larger than a threshold. The motivation for this patch is
the intuition that if motion is likely large (as indicated by
the reference), there is likley to be more motion blur, and as
a result 1/8 pel precision would be wasteful both in rd sense
as well as computationally.
The feature is incorporated as part of the newmventropy experiment.
There is a modest RD improvement with the patch. Overall the
results with the newmventropy experiment with the threshold being
16 integer pels are:
derf: +0.279%
std-hd: +0.617%
hd: +1.299%
yt: +0.822%
With threshold 8 integer pels are:
derf: +0.295%
std-hd: +0.623%
hd: +1.365%
yt: +0.847%

Some cleanups that will make it easier to maintain the code
and incorporate upcoming changes on entropy coding for the
hybrid transforms.

This commit merges those parts of the CONFIG_NEW_MVREF
that specifically relate to choosing a better set of candidate
MV references into the NEWBESTREFMV experiment.
CONFIG_NEW_MVREF will then be used for changes relating
to the explicit coding of a cost optimized MV reference in the
bitstream as part of MV coding.

Extend experiment to use both vectors from MBs
coded using compound prediction as candidates.
In final sort only consider best 4 candidates
for now but make sure 0,0 is always one of them.
Other minor changes to new MV reference code.
Pass in Mv list to vp8_find_best_ref_mvs().

Adds a new experiment with redesigned/refactored motion vector entropy
coding. The patch also takes a first step towards separating the
integer and fractional pel components of a MV. However the fractional
pel encoding still depends on the integer pel part and so they are
not fully independent. Further experiments are in progress to see
how much they can be decoupled without affecting performance.
All components including entropy coding/decoding, costing for MV
search, forward updates and backward updates to probability tables,
have been implemented.
Results so far:
derf: +0.19%
std-hd: +0.28%
yt: +0.80%
hd: +1.15%
Patch: Simplifies the fractional pel models:
derf: +0.284%
std-hd: +0.289%

Enable ADST/DCT of dimension 16x16 for I16X16 modes. This change provides
benefits mostly for hd sequences.
Set up the framework for selectable transform dimension.
Also allowing quantization parameter threshold to control the use
of hybrid transform (This is currently disabled by setting threshold
always above the quantization parameter. Adaptive thresholding can
be built upon this, which will further improve the coding performance.)
The coding performance gains (with respect to the codec that has all
other configuration settings turned on) are
derf: 0.013
yt: 0.086
hd: 0.198
std-hd: 0.501
