This patch was based on Yang Xian's intern project code. Further modifications
were done.
1. Moved machine-learning related parameters into the context structure.
2. Corrected the calculation of sum_eobs.
3. Removed unused parameters and calculations.
4. Made it work with multiple tiles.
5. Added a speed feature for the machine-learning based partition search
early termination.
6. Re-organized the code.
The patch was rebased to the top-of-tree.

Fixes an issue when the LAST and golden is not used as a reference,
in which case its possible no encoding mode is set (since intra may be
skipped under certain codtions). Fix is to make sure intra is searched
if no inter mode is checked.
Issue can happen for temporal layer pattern#7 in vpx_temporal_svc_encoder.c

shift the bsse[] member of the macroblock struct to the front to avoid
an incorrect offset (0) to the upper half of bsse[0] which leads to a
negative resulting in a crash. restrict this to visual studio versions
before 2015 (the bug was observed with 2013, fixed in 2015) to avoid any
potential cache impact on other platforms.

Enable row-mt for SVC for real-time mode, speed >=5.
Add the controls to the sample encoders, but keep it off for now.
Add the control and enable it for the 1 pass CBR unittests.
For speed 7, 3 layer SVC, 2 threads, row-mt enabled gives about ~5% speedup.

The 2 thresholds(i.e. partition_search_breakout_dist_thr and
partition_search_breakout_rate_thr) are used as the partition search
early termination speed feature. This refactoring patch made this
feature to be frame size dependent consistently throughout the code.

Fix the conditon for getting last_source when denoising is on.
This avoids unneeded scaling in the case of SVC.
No change in quality.

Reduce the level from 4 to 2.
This gives ~1-2% quality gain on RTC set, with small decreaee in speed (~1-2% on mac).

From commit:

On non-segment the set_vbp_thresholds() should be called
again to adjust thresholds based on content_state of superblock.
This was the intended behavior from 441393.
Small change in RTC metrics and speed.

new_mt is a very generic name that will get obsolete soon enough.
Since this is exposed as a codec control, renaming it to row_mt to
signify row level paralellism. Also renaming the ETHREAD_BIT_MATCH
codec control to ROW_MT_BIT_EXACT.

vp9_highbd_block_error_8bit_c was a very simple wrapper around
vp9_block_error_c. The SSE2 implemention was practically identical to
the non-HBD one. It was missing some minor improvements which only
went into the original version.
In quick speed tests, the AVX implementation showed minimal
improvement over SSE2 when it does not detect overflow. However, when
overflow is detected the function is run a second time. The
OperationCheck test seems to trigger this case and reverses any
speed benefits by running ~60% slower. AVX2 on the other hand is
always 30-40% faster.

Only works for bitdepth = 8 when compiled with high bitdepth flag.
4x speed ups for handling 1:2 down/upsampling.
Validated manually for:
1) Dynamic resize for a single layer encoding
2) SVC encoding with 3 spatial layers
Results are bitexact with the patch and the speed gain (~4x) in the
scaling was verified.

The reduction showed improvement on RTC when aq-mode=3 is on.
Add that (cyclic refresh enabled) to the condition.
Only affects 1 pass CBR.

For speed 8 only.
3% speed up for QVGA and 6.3% for VGA on Nexus 6.
~3% avgPSNR decrease on rtc_derf and 2.9% on rtc.
Disabled for now.

Increase the variance partition thresholds for superblocks that
have low sum-diff (from source analysis prior to encoding frame).
Use it for now only for speed >= 7 or for denoising on.
Small change on metrics for rtc set: less than ~0.1 avgPNSR decrease
on RTC set, for both speed 7 and 8.

Use the simple block_yrd under certain conditions.
The optimization code is completed but the speed is still slower
(~6% on 720p) than the low-bitdepth build.
For now, use the more complex block_yrd under certain conditions
(always use it for speed <= 5, otherwise use it on key frames and for
bsize >= 32x32).
This gives about ~2-3% gain in quality for speed 7 on RTC set
(over high bitdepth build), with about the same encoder fps as the
low bitdepth build.

This change subtracts out low complexity intra regions that are also low
error in the inter domain, in the calculation of the frame prediction decay.
The rationale here his that low complexity regions (such as sky) do not imply
high prediction decay in the same way as high error intra or neutral blocks.
The effect of this is small in most clips but in a few clips it can be > 10%.
(E.g. In to tree)
