Calculate the difference variance between last source frame and
current source frame. The variance is calculated at 16x16 block
level. The variances are compared to several thresholds to decide
final partition sizes.
An adaptive strategy is implemented to decide using
SOURCE_VAR_BASED_PARTITION or FIXED_PARTITION based on motions
in the video. The switching test is done once every
search_type_check_frequency frames.
The selection of source_var_thresh needs to be investigated
further later.
RTC set Borg test showed 0.424% overall psnr gain, and 0.357%
ssim gain. For clips with large enough static area, the
encoding speedup is around 2% to 15%.

2 functions were optimized for avx2 by using full 256 bit register
In order to handle 32 elements in parallel instead of only 16 in parallel:
1. vp9_sad32x32x4d
2. vp9_sad64x64x4d
The function level gain is 66% and the user level gain is ~1%.

significantly speeds up file generation.
the goal of this change is to convert rtcd.sh to perl as directly as
possible to allow for simple comparison. future changes can make it more
perl-like.
