6b25501bf1 Using int_mv instead of MV
The compiler produces better assembly when using int_mv
for assignments.  The compiler shifts and ors the two 16bit
values when assigning MV.

89c6017cc0 fix a bug related to gf_active_flags in multi-threaded encoder
Paul pointed out that the pointer to the gf_active_flags is not being
properly incremented in multithreaded encoder. This commit fixes the
issue by making sure the gf_active_ptr points to the starting of next
group of mb rows.

bfe803bda3 Fix multithreaded encoding for 1 MB wide frame
Thread synchronization was not correct when frame width was 1 MB.
Number of allocated encoding threads is limited by the sync_range.
There is no point having more because each thread lags sync_range MBs
behind the thread processing the row above.

63fc44dfa5 correct quantizer initialization
The encoder was not correctly catching transitions in the quantizer
deltas. If a delta_q was set, then the quantizer would be reinitialized
on every frame, but if they transitioned to 0, the quantizer would
not be reinitialized, leading to a encode-decode mismatch.

This bug was triggered by commit 999e155, which sets a Y2 delta Q
for very low base Q levels.

b0da9b399d Add psnr/ssim tuning option
Add a new encoder control, VP8E_SET_TUNING, to allow the application
to inform the encoder that the material will benefit from certain
tuning. Expose this control as the --tune option to vpxenc. The args
helper is expanded to support enumerated arguments by name or value.

Two tunings are provided by this patch, PSNR (default) and SSIM.
Activity masking is made dependent on setting --tune=ssim, as the
current implementation hurts speed (10%) and PSNR (2.7% avg,
10% peak) too much for it to be a default yet.

0a49747b01 quantizer: fix assertion in fast quantizer path
The fast quantizer assembly code has not been updated to match the new
exact quantizer, which was made the default in commit 6adbe09.
Specifically, they are not aware of the potential for the coefficient
to be scaled, which results in the quantized result exceeding the range
of the DCT. This patch restores the previous behavior of using the
non-shifted coefficients when in the fast quantizer code path, but
unfortunately requires rebuilding the tables when switching between the
two.

6adbe09058 Tuning for the more exact quantizer.
Small changes to the default zero bin and rounding tables.
Though the tables are currently the same for the Y1 and Y2 cases
I have left them as separate tables in case we want to tune this later.

There is now some adjustment of the zbin based on the prediction mode.
Previously this was restricted to an adjustment for gf/arf 0,0 MV.

The exact quantizer now marginal outperforms and is the default.

The overall average gain is about 0.5%

8f75ea6b5c Convert [4][4] matrices to [16] arrays.
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.

136857475e Centralize mb skip state calculation
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.

8d0f7a01e6 Add simple version of activity masking.
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.

it might be beneficial to calibrate the two arrays for best

Normalizing the two arrays will enable quick optimization

removed.

The frames are not updated after the copy, they are just

Changes needed to be made to the encoder to handle this.  The

where pointer reference could be done.
