This commit enables selecting probability models for recursive block
partition information syntax, depending on its above/left partition
information, as well as the current block size. These conditional
probability models are reasonably stationary and consistent across
frames, hence the backward adaptive approach is used to maintain and
update the contextual models.
It achieves coding performance gains (on top of enabling rectangular
block sizes):
derf: 0.242%
yt: 0.391%
hd: 0.376%
stdhd: 0.645%

Also some further simplification following removal
of top node code.
There is an issue in regards to the shared file vp8cx.h
in regard to the roi_map as this interface assumes that
there are only 4 segments. I have left the value here as
4 for now meaning that the roi_map interface is broken
for VP9.
Note that this change would have been easier if I hadn't
had to search for hard wire instances of the number 4
and <= 3.

This commit moves the coeff storage from the MACROBLOCK struct to its
per-plane part. The next commit will remove the coeff member from the
BLOCK structure so that it is consistently accessed per-plane.
Also refactors vp9_sb_block_error_c and vp9_sb_uv_block_error_c to be
variable subsampling aware.

This commit enables rectangular block prediction of compound
inter-intra mode. It combines the mb/sb32/sb64 prediction functions
into a unified version with configurable block width and height.
This fixes the enc/dec mismatch of the codebase when
comp-interintra-pred is enabled.

First in a series of commits making certain MACROBLOCK members
addressable per-plane. This commit also refactors the block subtraction
functions vp9_subtract_b, vp9_subtract_sby_c, etc to be
loops-over-planes and variable subsampling aware.

Adds an experiment that codes an end-of-orientation symbol
for every eligible zero encountered in scan order.
This cleans out various other sub-experiments that were part
of the origiinal patch, which will be later included if found
useful.
Results are slightly positive on all sets (0.1 - 0.2% range).

First in a series of commits moving the framebuffers pointers to
per-plane data, so that they can be indexed numerically rather than
by name.

Remove the unnecessary _s_ from their names, and add a new
vp9_recon_sb() that calls the y and uv variants.

Use in-place buffers (dst of MACROBLOCKD) for macroblock prediction.
This makes the macroblock buffer handling consistent with those of
superblock. Remove predictor buffer MACROBLOCKD.

Adds RD integration for 32x16, 16x32, 64x32 and 32x64 rectangular blocks.
Derf almost +0.6%, HD a little over +1.0%, STDHD +1.3%.

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 flag was added to VP8 to allow a mode where MB-level skipping
was not allowed, saving a bit per mb. It was never used in practice,
and hasn't been tested in VP9, so remove it.

Combine superblock inter predictors into a unified function that
allows configurable block width and height. The inter predictions
of block sizes smaller than 16x16 are handled differently. To be
continued on merging them later.

The probabilities derived from these statistics are used in bitstream
writing; therefore, we should only do this when we actually decide to
use macroblock coding (over superblock coding). Derf gains +0.15%.

The intra predictor supports configurable block sizes. It can handle
intra prediction down to 4x4 sizes, when enabled in BLOCK_SIZE_TYPE.

Rename pick_mb_modes to pick_mb_mode, since it now handles only a
single macroblock. This is consistent with pick_sb_mode handling a
single non-macroblock.

Merge various super_block_yrd and super_block_uvrd versions into one
common function that works for all sizes. Make transform size selection
size-agnostic also. This fixes a slight bug in the intra UV superblock
code where it used the wrong transform size for txsz > 8x8, and stores
the txsz selection for superblocks properly (instead of forgetting it).
Lastly, it removes the trellis search that was done for 16x16 intra
predictors, since trellis is relatively expensive and should thus only
be done after RD mode selection.
Gives basically identical results on derf (+0.009%).

Merge sb32x32 and sb64x64 functions; allow for rectangular sizes. Code
gives identical encoder results before and after. There are a few
macros for rectangular block sizes under the sbsegment experiment; this
experiment is not yet functional and should not yet be used.
