Don't allow i4x4 except for sb8x8 recursion step. Read only 4 (not 16)
i4x4 submodes if we are i4x4.

If a reference frame is inter, the only valid modes would
be inter modes. This check is unnecessary.

Work-in-progress, not yet ready for review. TODO items:
- bitstream writing (encoder) and reading (decoder)
- decoder reconstruction

Changing the order of probabilities inside mb_segment_tree_probs in order
to use treed_read/treed_write function instead of custom code.

This originally was "Removed update_blockd_bmi()". Now,
this patch removed bmi from blockd and uses the bmi found
in mode_info_context. Eliminates unnecessary bmi copies between
blockd and mode_info_context.

Function set_mb_row() and set_mb_col() do similar work and are always
called together, this commit merged them into a single function for
clarity and easy maintainence. This was a TODO item.

This commit enables selecting probability models for recursive block
partition information syntax, depending on its above/left partition
information, as well as the current block size. These conditional
probability models are reasonably stationary and consistent across
frames, hence the backward adaptive approach is used to maintain and
update the contextual models.
It achieves coding performance gains (on top of enabling rectangular
block sizes):
derf: 0.242%
yt: 0.391%
hd: 0.376%
stdhd: 0.645%

Also some further simplification following removal
of top node code.
There is an issue in regards to the shared file vp8cx.h
in regard to the roi_map as this interface assumes that
there are only 4 segments. I have left the value here as
4 for now meaning that the roi_map interface is broken
for VP9.
Note that this change would have been easier if I hadn't
had to search for hard wire instances of the number 4
and <= 3.

Remove top node optimization.
The improvement this gives is not sufficient to justify
the extra complexity.

For 1080 material, this buffer is currently 2,270,928 bytes. This patch swaps
ptrs instead of copying and uses the last show_frame flag instead of setting
the entire buffer to zero. For the test clip used, the decoder improved by up
to 1%.

Further simplification of mvref search to return
only the top two candidates. Distance weights removed
as the test order reflects distance anyway.

Enable recursive partition information coding from SB64X64 down to
MB16X16. The bit-stream syntax is now supporting rectangular block
sizes. It starts from SB64X64 and recursively describes the partition
type of the current block. If the partition type is PARTITION_NONE,
the block is coded as a single unit; if it is PARTITION_HORZ or
PARTITION_VERT, the block is segmented into two independently coded
rectangular units, with no further partition needed; otherwise, the
block is segmented into 4 square blocks. i.e., PARTITION_SPLIT case,
each can be potentially further partitioned.
Forward adaptive probability modeling is used for the partition
information coding, conditioned on the current block size.

This flag was added to VP8 to allow a mode where MB-level skipping
was not allowed, saving a bit per mb. It was never used in practice,
and hasn't been tested in VP9, so remove it.

Clamp only the motion vectors inferred from neighboring reference
macroblocks. The motion vectors obtained through motion search in
NEWMV mode are constrained during the search process, which allows
a relatively larger referencing region than the inferred mvs.
Hence further clamping the best mv provided by the motion search may
affect the efficacy of NEWMV mode.
Synchronized the decoding process. The decoded mvs in NEWMV modes
should be guaranteed to fit in the effective range. Put a mv range
clamping function there for security purpose.
This improves the coding performance of high motion sequences, e.g.,
derf set:
foreman 0.233%
husky 0.175%
icd 0.135%
mother_daughter 0.337%
pamphlet 0.561%
stdhd set:
blue_sky 0.408%
city 0.455%
also saw sunflower goes down by -0.469%.
