This will save a lot of memory for decoder due to removing of prev_mi,
but prev_mi is still needed in encoder. So this will increase a little bit
memory for encoder.

This patch allocated frame contexts outside VP9_COMMON. This allows
multiple threads to share the same copy of frame contexts, and
reduces the overhead. It also guarantees the correct update of
these contexts during bitstream packing. This patch doesn't change
encoding result.

Using 4 threads, frame parallel decode is ~3x faster than single thread
decode and around 30% faster than tile parallel decode for frame parallel
encoded video on both Android and desktop with 4 threads. Decode speed is
scalable to threads too which means decode could be even faster with more threads.

mi_grid_* are arrays of pointer to pointer. They save the pointers that point
to the MIs in cm->mi. But they are unnecessary and complicated. The original
goal was to remove MODE_INFO_t copy. But with an extra MODE_INFO_t pointer
inside MODE_INFO_t, same goal could be achieved.
This commit totally removes the mi_grid_* structures. But there are still
many dummy MODE_INFO_t inside cm->mi which are a waste of memory. Next commit
will do on-demand MODE_INFO_t allocation in order to save these memories.

The original implementation only allocates one segmentation map and this
works fine for serial decode. But for frame parallel decode, each thread
need to have its own segmentation map and the last frame segmentation map
should be provided from last frame decoding thread.
After finishing decoding a frame, thread need to serve the old segmentation
map that associate with the previous decoded frame. The thread also need to
use another segmentation map for decoding the current frame.

A previous change, https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/#/c/70632,
introduced a size validation for reference frames to insuare the
input stream is a valid VP9 stream. However, the logic requiring
all reference frames have valid size turned out to be too strict.
In this commit, we modify the validation to require one of the
reference frame has valid dimension. In addition, the decoder
reports error whenever it detects the use of reference frame
with invalid scalig ratio.

Reimplementing sub8x8-reading of intra block modes in
read_intra_frame_mode_info() and read_intra_block_mode_info(). Code looks
more readable as well.

This commit removes the use of best_mv in the decoding process. This
variable can be replaced with nearest_mv. It saves a few cycles on
assigning the values for best_mv.

Renaming treed_read() to consistent vp9_read_tree() and moving it from
