For key frames everything is the same as before. For inter frames we try

Change-Id: I273b99d8d621d1853eac4182f97982cb5957247e
Added two flags to the frame header:

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.

Hardware implementation needs to load coeff probs based on the

The recursive partition type search is enabled down to 4x4, 4x8 and
8x4, followed by the corresponding rate-distortion optimization for
the per-partition encoding mode decisions.
The bit-stream writing/reading synchronized in supporting the
rectangular partition of 8x8 block.
This provides above 1% coding performance gains on derf.
To do next:
1. re-design the rate-distortion loop for inter prediction below 8x8.
2. re-design the rate-distortion loop for intra prediction below 4x4.
3. make the loop-filter aware of rectangular partition of 8x8 block.
4. clean the unused probability models.
5. update default probability values.

This commit allows the rate-distortion optimization recursion
at encoder to go down to 4x4 block size. It deprecates the use
of I4X4_PRED and SPLITMV syntax elements from bit-stream
writing/reading. Will remove the unused probability models in
the next patch.
The partition type search and bit-stream are now capable of
supporting the rectangular partition of 8x8 block, i.e., 8x4

This commit enables selecting probability models for recursive block
partition information syntax, depending on its above/left partition

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 is work-in-progress, it implements multiple ARF
encoding behind an experimental flag.
It adds the ability to insert multiple ARF frames into a
single ARF group. This patch implements the reordering
of the coded frames, and implements a fixed-length coding
pattern. It applies a fixed quantizer strategy based on
where the frame is in the coding sequence.
Further work to modify the rate control strategy is
ongoing and will be submitted via a set of future patches.
In this first step, each ARF group is recursively
bisected and an ARF frame added at that position in the
sequence. The recursion continues until ARF frames are
within MIN_GF_INTERVAL frames.
The code sits behind the "multiple-arf" experimental
flag ("CONFIG_MULTIPLE_ARF"). The experimental flag
"oneshotq" ("CONFIG_ONESHOTQ") also needs to be enabled
for this patch to work correctly.

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.,

The patch adds the flexibility to use standard EOB based coding
on smaller block sizes and nzc based coding on larger blocksizes.
The tx-sizes that use nzc based coding and those that use EOB based

By default, this function uses nzc based coding for 16x16 and 32x32

substantially.

Adds an experiment to use a weighted prediction of two INTER
predictors, where the weight is one of (1/4, 3/4), (3/8, 5/8),
(1/2, 1/2), (5/8, 3/8) or (3/4, 1/4), and is chosen implicitly
based on consistency of the predictors to the already
reconstructed pixels to the top and left of the current macroblock
or superblock.
Currently the weighting is not applied to SPLITMV modes, which
default to the usual (1/2, 1/2) weighting. However the code is in
place controlled by a macro. The same weighting is used for Y and
UV components, where the weight is derived from analyzing the Y
component only.
Results (over compound inter-intra experiment)

Now that the first AC coefficient in both directions use the same DC
as their context, there no longer is a purpose in letting both have
their own band. Merging these two bands allows us to split bands for
some of the very high-frequency AC bands.
In addition, I'm redoing the banding for the 1D-ADST col/row scans. I
don't think the old banding made any sense at all (it merged the last
coefficient of the first row/col in the same band as the first two of
the second row/col), which was clearly an oversight from the band being
applied in scan-order (rather than in their actual position). Now,
coefficients at the same position will be in the same band, regardless
what scan order is used. I think this makes most sense for the purpose
of banding, which is basically "predict energy for this coefficient
depending on the energy of context coefficients" (i.e. pt).
After full re-training, together with previous patch, derf gains about
1.2-1.3%, and hd/stdhd gain about 0.9-1.0%.

Pearson correlation for above or left is significantly higher than for
previous-in-scan-order (absolute values depend on position in scan, but
in general, we gain about 0.1-0.2 by using either above or left; using
both basically just makes this even better). For eob branch skipping,
we continue to use the previous token in scan order.
This helps about 0.9% on derf after re-training on a limited data set.
Full re-training and results on larger-resolution clips are pending.
Note that this commit breaks trellis, so we can probably get further
gains out of it by fixing trellis at some later point.

Replaces the default tables for single coefficient magnitudes with
those obtained from an appropriate distribution. The EOB node
is left unchanged. The model is represeted as a 256-size codebook
where the index corresponds to the probability of the Zero or the
One node. Two variations are implemented corresponding to whether
the Zero node or the One-node is used as the peg. The main advantage
is that the default prob tables will become considerably smaller and
manageable. Besides there is substantially less risk of over-fitting
for a training set.
Various distributions are tried and the one that gives the best
results is the family of Generalized Gaussian distributions with
shape parameter 0.75. The results are within about 0.2% of fully
trained tables for the Zero peg variant, and within 0.1% of the
One peg variant.
The forward updates are optionally (controlled by a macro)
model-based, i.e. restricted to only convey probabilities from the
codebook. Backward updates can also be optionally (controlled by
another macro) model-based, but is turned off by default. Currently
model-based forward updates work about the same as unconstrained
updates, but there is a drop in performance with backward-updates
being model based.
The model based approach also allows the probabilities for the key
frames to be adjusted from the defaults based on the base_qindex of
the frame. Currently the adjustment function is a placeholder that
adjusts the prob of EOB and Zero node from the nominal one at higher
quality (lower qindex) or lower quality (higher qindex) ends of the
range. The rest of the probabilities are then derived based on the
model from the adjusted prob of zero.

Split macroblock and superblock tokenization and detokenization

layout and related code of superblock coefficients looks less like it's
a hack to fit macroblocks in superblocks.
In addition, unify chroma transform size selection from luma transform
size (i.e. always use the same size, as long as it fits the predictor);
in practice, this means 32x32 and 64x64 superblocks using the 16x16 luma
transform will now use the 16x16 (instead of the 8x8) chroma transform,
and 64x64 superblocks using the 32x32 luma transform will now use the
