This commit re-designs the quantization process for transform
coefficient blocks of size 4x4 to 16x16. It improves compression
performance for speed 7 by 3.85%. The SSSE3 version for the
new quantization process is included.
The average runtime of the 8x8 block quantization is reduced
from 285 cycles -> 255 cycles, i.e., over 10% faster.

Add a conditional compile flag for this feature. Also add a
switch to enable the encoder to use these statistics in the
second pass. Currently, the switch is turned off.

The current threshold is knid of low, and in many cases NEWMV
mode is checked but not picked as the best mode. This patch
added a speed feature to increase NEWMV threshold, so that
less partition mode checking goes to check NEWMV. This feature
is enabled for speed 6 and 7.
Rtc set borg tests showed:
1. Speed 6, overall psnr: -0.088%, ssim: -1.339%;
Average speedup on rtc set is 11.1%.
2. Speed 7, overall psnr: -0.505%, ssim: -2.320%
Average speedup on rtc set is 12.9%.

pull the latest from WebP, which adds a worker interface abstraction
allowing an application to override init/reset/sync/launch/execute/end
this has the side effect of removing a harmless, but annoying, TSan
warning.

The caller should reset the state instead of letting worker

Encoder still uses SWITCHABLE as default via DEFAULT_INTERP_FILTER,
but does not override the default if it is not SWITCHABLE.

When the frame is intra coded only, the encoder takes the RD
coding flow. Hence the function set_mode_info is not practically
in use. This commit removes it and the associated conditional
branches.

For real time speed 7, once encode breakout is on(i.e. encoding
setting --static-thresh=1), a proper encode breakout threshold
is set to speed up the encoder.
Set --static-thresh=1, RTC set borg test showed a slight overall
psnr loss of 0.162%, but ssim gain of 0.287%. The average speedup
on RTC set is 6%, and for some clips, the speedup can be 10+%.

Before encoding a frame, calculate and store each 16x16 block's
variance of source difference between last and current frame.
Find partitioning threshold T for the frame from its variance
histogram, and then use T to make partition decisions.
Comparing with fixed 16x16 partitioning, rtc set test showed an
overall psnr gain of 3.242%, and ssim gain of 3.751%. The best
psnr gain is 8.653%.
The overall encoding speed didn't change much. It got faster for
some clips(for example, 12% speedup for vidyo1), and a little
slower for others.
Also, a minor modification was made in datarate unit test.

the buffer is only used in encoding and only when
CONFIG_INTERNAL_STATS or CONFIG_VP9_POSTPROC is enabled.
a future change should decouple this from the frame buffer allocation
and make it conditional based on runtime flags when the above config
options are enabled.
reduces decode heap usage by at least 12%

This patch checks that a decoder never tries to reference frame that's
outside the range of 2x to 1/16th the size of this frame. Any attempt
to do so causes a failure.

Bug introduced in I930dced169c9d53f8044d2754a04332138347409. If
svc.number_temporal_layers == 1 and svc.number_spatial_layers == 1, the system
attempt to do spatial SVC. It no longer does that.

This commit enables an adaptive transform size selection method
for speed -6. It uses largest transform size when the sse is more
than 4 times of variance, i.e., most energy is compacted in the
DC coefficient. Otherwise, use the default TX_8X8. It improves
the compression efficiency for rtc set of speed -6 by 0.8%, no
speed change observed.
