Overall change (using dual buffer scheme for superblocks of both inter
and intra modes) reduces speed 2 runtime:
bluesky_1080p at 6000kbps: 263553ms -> 257441ms
riverbed_1080p at 8000kbps: 233230ms -> 225308ms.

Implements scan order to band map with arrays in both the encoder
and decoder to remove conditional statements.
Encoding seems to be about 1% faster at speed 0, tested on football.
Decoding seems to be about 0.5-1% faster on a set of 25 videos.

This commit enables the dual buffer rate-distortion optimization
and encoding scheme. It stacks the original transform coefficients,
quantized levels, and reconstructed coefficients, in the rate-
distortion optimization search process, hence eliminates the need
to re-run residual generation, forward transform, and quantization
in the encoding stage.

We only used "ib" to call get_scan() function, which in turn calls
get_tx_type_4x4() function. The latter one only needs block index if
bsize < BLOCK_8X8 -- under that condition raster_block == block.

This commit makes zcoeff_blk cache the case where the entire block
is quantized to be zero (without applying zero-forcing) in the rate-
distortion optimization loop, and skip the forward DCT, quantization,
inverse DCT, and reconstruction process in the encode_block stage.
It now works for all the block sizes, including sub8x8 blocks.

The encode_block for pass 1 takes simpler functionalities and can
save a few branches. The main reason is to make encode_block only
used after running rate-distortion optimization search in pass 2,
hence allowing dual buffer stack approach later.

This commit enables forcing all coefficients zero per transformed

The 16x16 transform unit test suggested that the peak coefficient

For the test clips used, the decoder performance improved
by ~4.3% (1080p) and ~9.7% (720p).

The low precision 32x32 fdct has all the intermediate steps within
16-bit depth, hence allowing faster SSE2 implementation, at the
expense of larger round-trip error. It was used in the rate-distortion
optimization search loop only.
Using the low precision version, in replace of the high precision one,
affects the compression performance by about 0.7% (derf, stdhd) at
speed 0. For speed 1, it makes derf set down by only 0.017%.

This allows us to increment the position at the band-level only as
we go from one band to the next; more importantly, that allows us to
use an add instead of multiply instruction, and omit the instruction
altogether if the band doesn't change from one coef to the next, thus
being slightly faster (probably more noticeable on systems where a
multiply is expensive, like arm).

This commit brought back the shortcut implementation of 8x8/16x16
inverse 2D-DCT. When the eob <= 10, it skips the inverse transform
operations on row 4:7/4:15 in the first round. For bus_cif at 1000
kbps, this provides about 2% speed-up at speed 0.

Total encode time of first 50 frames of bus @ 1500kbps (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.
