In model_rd_for_sb function, the spatial domain SSE and variance
are checked to see if transform coefficients are quantized to 0.
Besides that, this patch adds another set of thresholds that are
much more strict. These thresholds are used to conduct a partition
block level check to measure if all its TX blocks are skippable
for YUV planes. If it is true, x->skip is set for this partition
block, and thus its mode search is terminated.
This speeds up the encoding at very low prediction error case,
such as screen sharing application. This patch covers what
rd_encode_breakout_test() does, so that function is removed.
Borg test at speed 3 shows:
For stdhd set, psnr: +0.008%, ssim: +0.014%;
For derf set, psnr: +0.018%, ssim: +0.025%.
No noticeable speed change.

For input source with size that is not multiple of 8, the size is
rounded to 8 and saved in width or height, the original source sizes
are saved in crop_width and crop_height. This commit corrects the
computation of bottom and right extension amounts to use the orignal
sizes, hence crop_width and crop_height.
In addition, this commit also adds the missed initialization for
uv_crop_width and uv_crop_height.

The concept:
There's too much noise in source pixels for variance and at low bitrate
the reconstructed looks nothing like the source so we have problems
getting good partitionings with either. This skirts the issue by using
a box blur scaled down version for variance calculations. To compare
against source_var_ moved keyframe to be rd based like source_var.

This SSE2 is based on VP8 denoiser's SSE2 code. In VP8, there are
only 16x16 blocks in denoiser, while in VP9, there are 13 different
block sizes.
By adding this SSE2 code, the improvement of encoder speed is around

The unit test for VP9 denoiser is to confirm that the SSE2 code is

mi_grid_* are arrays of pointer to pointer. They save the pointers that point

The issue was discovered on bitstream with 2x vertical downscale. For
zero MVs, y_pad is set to 1 only when vertical convolution is
required. The original code assumes that for y_step_q4 == 32 we don't
perform vertical convolution. But vp9_setup_scale_factors_for_frame()
sets convolve functions so that when x_step and y_step are both not
equal to 16, convolve in both directions is performed. And convolve()
unconditionally subtracts one stride from source pointer when calls
convolve_horiz(). This leads to invalid memory access.

this change defers the allocation until the loop filter is used.

The speedup in rd_pick_partition() function makes it possible
to drop use_lastframe_partitioning feature. By doing that, we
achieve good PSNR gain with small speed loss. Also, this makes
encoding loop less complicated. The code cleanup patch will
follow.
Borg tests showed:
1. At speed 2,
stdhd set: 0.201% PSNR gain, 0.133% SSIM gain;
derf set: 0.262% PSNR gain, 0.276% SSIM gain.
2. At speed 3,
stdhd set: 0.139% PSNR gain, 0.109% SSIM gain;
derf set: 0.447% PSNR gain, 0.442% SSIM gain.
The average speed loss over selected test clips is within 1%
with the worst case of 4%.

The rate costs calculated for inter modes are not precise in some
cases, which causes NEWMV is chosen instead of NEARESTMV, NEARMV,
and ZEROMV. This patch added checks for these cases, and corrected
the mode decisions.
Borg tests at speed 3 showed:
1. stdhd set: 0.102% PSNR gain and 0.088% SSIM gain.
2. derf set: 0.147% PSNR gain and 0.132% SSIM gain.
No speed change.

Removed functions:
* vp9_post_proc_down_and_across_mmx
* vp9_mbpost_proc_down_mmx
* vp9_plane_add_noise_mmx
They all have sse2 equivalent.

vp9_variance_sse2.c contains a mix of intrinsics and references to
assembly which uses x86inc.asm; it's conditionally included as a result.

allocations within vp9_alloc_context_buffers() rely on mi_rows/mi_cols
individually, use those to determine whether to realloc rather than
stride and stride * rows. this fixes a crash with some fuzzed files for
invalid accesses into last_frame_seg_map and above_context.

proceeding using a corrupt (incompletely decoded) frame reference may
lead to incorrect assumptions about allocation sizes leading to a crash.

This commit turns on adaptive motion search for ARF coding, in
addition to other normal inter frame coding. It improves the
average compression efficiency:
stdhd 0.1%
derf 0.04%
For the test sequences, the speed 3 runtime is reduced:
pedestrian 1080p 2000 kbps, 149932 ms -> 144580 ms, (3.3% speed-up)
bus CIF 1000 kbps, 8050 ms -> 7895 ms, (1.9%)
highway CIF 100 bkps, 45033 ms -> 44078 ms, (2.2%)

This is to keep the same with VP8 denoiser.
If motion magnitude is small,
make denoiser more aggressive.
Change-Id: I942a6e2f2ed9aec6f0c4c1f9e5fa47066cadcc0c
When the first try of denoising turns out to be too much,
we will use a softer filter by adopting an adjustment to
make the result closer to original pixel (as in VP8 denoiser).
The old code made the adjustment in the wrong direction.

This commit allows the encoder to store outcomes of single reference
frame modes and compares them to decide if the inter prediction
filter, forward transform, and quantization can be skipped.
The compression performance of speed 3 is down
derf -0.364%
stdhd -0.198%
For test sequences, the speed 3 runtime is reduced
highway CIF 100 kbps, 51976 ms -> 45033 ms, 13% speed-up

intra_super_block_yrd() and inter_super_block_yrd() are largely same,
this commit merges them into one to reduce code duplication.

From 3 to 2, which seems to be slightly positive on compression for
all test sets, also reduces encoding time by 2%-5%, varying on the
test clips.

This commit removes the special case for key frame, as transform size
decision is controlled by the appropriate speed feature for all lossy
coding modes: tx_size_search_method.

This commit allows the encoder to skip check on compound inter
modes in the rate-distortion optimization loop, if the reference
frame bias signs are the same.
