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.

This commit makes clean-ups in the rate-distortion loop for 4x4,
4x8, and 8x4 block sizes for the use of iterative motion search.
Removed unnecessary use of bmi in handle_inter_mode.
Deprecated loop over labels in the 4x4/4x8/8x4 block rd search.

scales for second reference frame vars are unitialized if the
second ref frame is one of of those disallowed by refframeflags

Proposal for tuning the residual coding by changing how the context
from previous tokens is calculated. Storing the energy class of previous
tokens instead of the token itself eases the critical path of
HW implementations.

Adding API to read/write uncompressed frame header bits (it is not final
yet). Separate functions to read/write uncompressed header. Moving
clr_type, error_resilient_mode, refresh_frame_context,
frame_parallel_decoding_mode, frame_context_idx from compressed partition
to uncompressed frame header.

This commit pulls the iterative motion search for compound inter-
inter out from handle_inter_mode_ as a separate function. Hence,
it is applicable to 4x4/4x8/8x4 level compound inter search to be
enabled later.
Also edit the rd loop for 4x4 inter block sizes for cosmetic
purpose.

Removed one 4x4 prediction step that was unnessary in the rd loop.
Removed a unused modecosts estimate from encoder side.

1. remove prediction mode conversion
2. unified bmode, same for key and non-key frame
3. set I4X4_PRED count for pdf to 0, as I4X4_PRED is no longer
coded ever. It is determined by ref_frame and block partition

This commit removes the use of bmi_ in the first-pass encoding by
forcing encode_intra4x4block_ to use DC_PRED, followed by DCT_DCT
only, as John suggested. This makes the need for bmi buffer only
up to 4 entries, instead of 16.

Hardware implementation needs to load coeff probs based on the
transform size. For selectable transform size, moving these bits
earlier in the bitstream adds some delay giving time to preload
the probs and speeds up the decoding process.

Also do per-partition motion vector referencing in <sb8x8 partitions,
and adjust mvref finding for sub8x8 partitions.

This code does not seem to be necessary anymore.
For the 1080p clip used, the decoder performance improved by
~2%.
Change-Id: I66bb0496d4998b0d6c6637c746b642b77bdbef88
1) Added an initialization of rd_tx_select_threshs[].
2) Made updating transform size counts to be consistent

As intra coded blocks are always decoded using decode_sb_intra(), this
commmit removed the code no longer in use.
Change-Id: I09f14fa9cdc875656e8fbe245f72c8fd83b9e31e
The changing in intra coding to base on transform block, i.e. pred->
txfm->quant->dequant-itxfm->recon, made all blocks within a prediction
unit behave consistently, there is no longer a need to handle blocks
differently based on the position within a predicitn block. So this
commit simplifies the decision of transform type to be based on
prediction mode only.

This commit refactors the iterative motion search for compound
inter-inter mode, to make it support all partition types including
4x4/4x8/8x4 block sizes.
Change-Id: I5f1212b0f307377291763e45c6bdc9693b5f04c8
Move 4x4/4x8/8x4 partition coding out of experimental list.
This commit fixed the unit test failure issues. It also resolved
the merge conflicts between 4x4 block level partition and iterative
motion search for comp_inter_inter.
