Fixes assert that fails occasionally on small values of
max-key frame intervals. Also, adds a small change on
updating frames_to_key for frame drops.

Applies an upper limit on burst bitrate for any
frame. This is to insure that typical encodes for YT
do not produce frames that are so large that they
risk stalling HW implementations. Such frames
could also cause playback problems in SW.
For now the limit is set at 250 bits per MB for 1080P
and larger (with the 1080P limit used for smaller frames).
Setting maxQ, constant quality mode or targeting a
very high bandwidth will have precedence over this limit.

Reference frame masking helped good quality mode to gain about 5% in
encoding speed, this commit enable it for rt mode to gain the speed
improvement.
In addition, this commit move the speed feature setup to a separate
function.

Introducing calc_psnr() which calculates psnr between two yv12 buffers.
Previously we incorrectly used width/height instead of
crop_width/crop_height to calculate number of samples -- fixed.

Added comments to explain what the various speed features do, and removed
1 that was clearly unused.

This commit allows encoder to compare the SAD cost associated with
the best motion vector predictor, per frame. If one reference frame
has this cost more than 4 times of the best SAD cost given by other
reference frames, skip NEARESTMV, NEARMV, ZEROMV mode check of this
reference frame.
This setting is turned on in speed 2 and above. Compression quality
change in speed 2:
derf -0.014%
yt -0.097%
hd -0.023%
stdhd 0.046%
It reduces the speed 2 runtime of test sequences:
pedestrian_area_1080p 4000 kbps 310763 ms -> 303595 ms
bluesky_1080p 6000 kbps 259852 ms -> 251920 ms

Under a configuration change, where the bitrate suddenly decreases,
the buffer level may be larger than maximum allowed (for that first frame to be encoded after change_config).
This change keeps it clipped to its maximum level.

1. Made speed choices to be progressive
2. Adjusted rt speed settings to achieve better speed/quality
Overall, rt-5 gained 2.5% in compression/quality, encoding time of 720p
niklas clip goes from 137,052ms to 121,874ms

Some cleanups on frames_to_key, frames_since_key.
Also removes the unused fixed_q parameters in vp9.

The feature undergoes prior assumption that the recursive partition
size search from 4x4 to 64x64, hence utilizing information from small
blocks to determine early termination in large block rate-distortion
optimization search. The current codebase is now going from top down.
The previous function might go with not properly initialized values,
hence removed.
Tested on pedestrian_area_1080p at 4000 kbps running under speed 2.
No visible difference in runtime observed.

This patch sets frame types correctly in the new
vp9_get_second_pass_params() function called prior
to encode_frame_to_data_rate() function, so that the
latter function can just work with what is passed to
it. This will allow multiple vp9_get_second_pass_params()
to be created for various encode strategies without
messing with the core encode function.
There is no difference in derf and yt. stdhd/hd are pending.

Adding RefBuffer to simplify reference buffer management. The struct has a
pointer to image data and scale factors relative to the current frame.
Change-Id: If38eb1491ff687cc11428aee339f3e052e2c5d9e
Moving back to scale_factors struct. We don't need anymore x_offset_q4 and
y_offset_q4 because both values are calculated locally inside vp9_scale_mv
function.
