When all the transform coefficients were quantized to zero, skip

runtime goes from 154967ms -> 149842ms, i.e., about 3% speed-up,
at speed 0.

Also inline some of the block calculations to assist the compiler to
not do silly things like calculating the same offset (or converting
between raster/transform block offset or block, mi and pixel unit)
many, many, many times.
Cycle times:
4x4: 584 -> 505 cycles (16% faster)
8x8: 1651 -> 1560 cycles (6% faster)
16x16: 7897 -> 7704 cycles (2.5% faster)
32x32: 16096 -> 15852 cycles (1.5% faster)
Overall, this saves about 0.5 seconds (1min49.8 -> 1min49.3) on the
first 50 frames of bus (speed 0) @ 1500kbps, i.e. 0.5% overall.

Skip the inverse transform and reconstruction of inter-mode coded
blocks in the rate-distortion optimization loop, when skip_encode_sb
feature is turned on. This provides about 1% speed-up at speed 0,
and 1.5% speed-up at speed 1. No performance change in both settings.

This speed feature allows the encoder to largely remove the spatial
dependency between blocks inside a 64x64 superblock, thereby removing
the need to repeatedly encode superblocks per partition type in the
rate-distortion optimization loop.
A major challenge lies in the intra modes tested in the rate-distortion
optimization loop. The subsequent blocks do not have access to the
reconstructed boundary pixels without the intermediate coding steps.
This was resolved by using the original pixels for intra prediction
in the rd loop, followed by an appropriately designed distortion
modeling on the quantization parameters. Experiments also suggested
that the performance impact is more discernible at lower bit-rate/psnr
settings. Hence a quantizer dependent threshold is applied to deactivate
skip of block coding.
For bus_cif at 2000 kbps,
speed 0: runtime 269854ms -> 237774ms (12% speed-up) at 0.05dB
performance loss.
speed 1: runtime 65312ms -> 61536ms, (7% speed-up) at 0.04dB
performance loss.
This operation is currently turned on in settings of speed 1.

Compute the rate-distortion cost per transformed block, and cumulate
the cost through all blocks inside a partition. This allows encoder
to detect if the cumulative rd cost is already above the best rd cost,
thereby enabling early termination in the rate-distortion optimization
search.

This should significantly speedup cost_coeffs(). Basically what the
patch does is to make the neighbour arrays padded by one item to
prevent an eob check in get_coef_context(), then it populates each
col/row scan and left/top edge coefficient with two times the same
neighbour - this prevents a single/double context branch in
get_coef_context(). Lastly, it populates neighbour arrays in pixel
order (rather than scan order), so we don't have to dereference the
scantable to get the correct neighbours.

This commit makes use of dual fdct32x32 versions for rate-distortion
optimization loop and encoding process, respectively. The one for
rd loop requires only 16 bits precision for intermediate steps.
The original fdct32x32 that allows higher intermediate precision (18
bits) was retained for the encoding process only.
This allows speed-up for fdct32x32 in the rd loop. No performance
loss observed.

derfraw300: +0.126%
This patch changes the coefficient tree to move the EOB to below
the ZERO node in order to save number of bool decodes.
The advantages of moving EOB one step down as opposed to two steps down
in the other parallel patch are: 1. The coef modeling based on
the One-node becomes independent of the tree structure above it, and
2. Fewer conext/counter increases are needed.
The drawback is that the potential savings in bool decodes will be
less, but assuming that 0s are much more predominant than 1's the
potential savings is still likely to be substantial.

This is a mostly-working implementation of an extra channel in the
bitstream. Configure with --enable-alpha to test. Notable TODOs:
- Add extra channel to all mismatch tests, PSNR, SSIM, etc
- Configurable subsampling
- Variable number of planes (currently always uses all 4)
- Loop filtering
- Per-plane lossless quantizer
- ARNR support
This implementation just uses the same contents as the Y channel
for the A channel, due to lack of content and general pain in
playing back 4 channel content. A later patch will use the actual
alpha channel passed in from outside the codec.
