This patch is the first step toward simplifying the
frame buffer handling.
The final goal is to have a common frame buffer handling
framework for both encoder and decoder that incorporates
the existing ability to use externally allocated memory.

This commit fixes a mismatched use case of block size in non-RD
intra prediction check. The residual SSE and variance should be
calculated per transform block size, instead of operating block
size, which caused chrome valgrind warning on conditional jump
based on uninitialized value (webm issue 823). This commit
resolves this issue.

thread: remove harmless race on status_ in End()
if a thread was still doing work when End() was called there'd be a race
on worker->status_. in these cases, however, the specific value is
meaningless as it would be >= OK and the thread would have been shut
down properly, but we'll check 'impl_' instead to avoid any potential
TSan/DRD reports.

Currently, vp9_diamond_search_sadx4() is only called when sse3 is
enabled, which is improper since sse2 optimization of sdx4df
functions are available. Changed to always use
vp9_diamond_search_sadx4().

There are sse2 optimization of sdx4df functions. Instead of calling

This commit enables a new quantization process for 32x32 2D-DCT
transform coefficient blocks. It improves the compression
performance of speed 5 by 1.4%. The overall compression gains of
speed 5 due to the new quantization scheme is 4.7%. It also includes
the SSSE3 implementation of the 32x32 quantization process.

This patch fixes bug 633:

The first decoded frame does not have to be a keyframe,
it could be an inter-frame that is coded intra-only.
This patch fixes the handling of intra-only frames.
A test vector has also been added that encodes 3
intra-only frames at the start of the clip. The
test vector was generated using the code in the
following patch:

Prepare for frame parallel decoding, the reference count buffers
need to be protected by mutex. Move vp9_thread.* to common
folder so that those buffers could use cross-platform mutex
from vp9_thread.*.

This commit re-designs the quantization process for transform
coefficient blocks of size 4x4 to 16x16. It improves compression
performance for speed 7 by 3.85%. The SSSE3 version for the
new quantization process is included.
The average runtime of the 8x8 block quantization is reduced
from 285 cycles -> 255 cycles, i.e., over 10% faster.

the buffer is only used in encoding and only when
CONFIG_INTERNAL_STATS or CONFIG_VP9_POSTPROC is enabled.
a future change should decouple this from the frame buffer allocation
and make it conditional based on runtime flags when the above config
options are enabled.
reduces decode heap usage by at least 12%

This patch checks that a decoder never tries to reference frame that's
outside the range of 2x to 1/16th the size of this frame. Any attempt
to do so causes a failure.

This commit enables a fast reference motion vector search scheme.
It checks the nearest top and left neighboring blocks to decide the
most probable predicted motion vector. If it finds the two have
the same motion vectors, it then skip finding exterior range for
the second most probable motion vector, and correspondingly skips
the check for NEARMV.
The runtime of speed -5 goes down
pedestrian at 1080p 29377 ms -> 27783 ms
vidyo at 720p 11830 ms -> 10990 ms
i.e., 6%-8% speed-up.
For rtc set, the compression performance
goes down by about -1.3% for both speed -5 and -6.

There is a normative scaling range of (x1/2, x16)
for VP9. This patch fixes the maximum downscaling
tests that are applied in the convolve function.
The code used a maximum downscaling limit of x1/5
for historic reasons related to the scalable
coding work. Since the downsampling in this
application is non-normative it will revert to
using a separate non-normative scaler.

The encoder currently allocates frame buffers before
it establishes what the chroma sub-sampling factor is,
always allocating based on the 4:4:4 format.
This patch detects the chroma format as early as
possible allowing the encoder to allocate buffers of
the correct size.
Future patches will change the encoder to allocate
frame buffers on demand to further reduce the memory
profile of the encoder and rationalize the buffer
management in the encoder and decoder.

This breaks the profile 1 bitstream.
Don't force non420 uv transform size to 1/4 y size. In the 4:2:0 case the
chroma corresponding to a luma block is 1/4 its size. In the 4:4:4 case
chroma and luma planes are the same size. Disallowing larger transforms
can result in a loss of compression efficiency and is inconsistent.
For sub-8x8 blocks only average corresponding motion vectors.
4:2:0 and profile 0 behavior remains unchanged.

This commit enables a fast path computational flow for forward
transformation. It checks the sse and variance of prediction
residuals and decides if the quantized coefficients are all
zero, dc only, or more. It then selects the corresponding coding
path in the forward transformation and quantization stage.
It is currently enabled in rtc coding mode. Will do it for rd
coding mode next.
In speed -6, the runtime for pedestrian_area 1080p at 1000 kbps
goes down from 14234 ms to 13704 ms, i.e., about 4% speed-up.
Overall coding performance for rtc set is changed by -0.18%.

In non frame-parallel decoding, this works the same way as
current decoding scheme. Every time after decoder finish
decoding a frame, it will swap the current mode info pointer
and previous mode info pointer if the decoded frame needs
to be shown. Both mode info pointer and previous mode info
pointer are from mode info arrays.
In frame-parallel decoding, this will become more complicated
as current frame's mode info pointer will be shared with next
frame as previous mode info pointer. But when one decoder
thread finishes decoding one frame and starts to work on next
available frame, it needs to retain the decoded frame's mode
info pointers until next frame finishes decoding. The mode info
index will serve this purpose. The decoder will use different
buffer in the mode info arrays and use the other buffer to save
previous decoded frame’s mode info.
