eb6ef2417f Coding con-zero count rather than EOB for coeffs
This patch revamps the entropy coding of coefficients to code first
a non-zero count per coded block and correspondingly remove the EOB
token from the token set.

STATUS:
Main encode/decode code achieving encode/decode sync - done.
Forward and backward probability updates to the nzcs - done.
Rd costing updates for nzcs - done.
Note: The dynamic progrmaming apporach used in trellis quantization
is not exactly compatible with nzcs. A suboptimal approach has been
used instead where branch costs are updated to account for changes
in the nzcs.

TODO:
Training the default probs/counts for nzcs

111ca42133 Make superblocks independent of macroblock code and data.
Split macroblock and superblock tokenization and detokenization
functions and coefficient-related data structs so that the bitstream
layout and related code of superblock coefficients looks less like it's
a hack to fit macroblocks in superblocks.

In addition, unify chroma transform size selection from luma transform
size (i.e. always use the same size, as long as it fits the predictor);
in practice, this means 32x32 and 64x64 superblocks using the 16x16 luma
transform will now use the 16x16 (instead of the 8x8) chroma transform,
and 64x64 superblocks using the 32x32 luma transform will now use the
32x32 (instead of the 16x16) chroma transform.

Lastly, add a trellis optimize function for 32x32 transform blocks.

HD gains about 0.3%, STDHD about 0.15% and derf about 0.1%. There's
a few negative points here and there that I might want to analyze
a little closer.

800ad0b886 Use ref_frame_map vice active_ref_idx on the encoder
This patch makes the encoder's use of ref_frame_map and active_ref_idx
consistent with the decoder. ref_frame_map[] maps a reference buffer
index to its actual location in the yv12_fb array, since many
references may share an underlying buffer. active_ref_idx[] mirrors
cpi->{lst,gld,alt}_fb_idx, holding the active references in each
slot.

This also fixes a bug in setup_buffer_inter() where the incorrect
reference was used to populate the scaling factors.

eb939f45b8 Spatial resamping of ZEROMV predictors
This patch allows coding frames using references of different
resolution, in ZEROMV mode. For compound prediction, either
reference may be scaled.

To test, I use the resize_test and enable WRITE_RECON_BUFFER
in vp9_onyxd_if.c. It's also useful to apply this patch to
test/i420_video_source.h:

  --- a/test/i420_video_source.h
  +++ b/test/i420_video_source.h
  @@ -93,6 +93,7 @@ class I420VideoSource : public VideoSource {

       // Read a frame from input_file.
  +    if (frame_ != 3)
       if (fread(img_->img_data, raw_sz_, 1, input_file_) == 0) {
         limit_ = frame_;
       }

This forces the frame that the resolution changes on to be coded
with no motion, only scaling, and improves the quality of the
result.

Ensure that all inter prediction goes through a common code path
that takes scaling into account. Removes a bunch of duplicate
1st/2nd predictor code. Also introduces a 16x8 mode for 8x8
MVs, similar to the 8x4 trick we were doing before. This has an
unexpected effect with EIGHTTAP_SMOOTH, so it's disabled in that
case for now.

c17672a33d Further changes to coefficient contexts.
This patch alters the balance of context between the
coefficient bands (reflecting the position of coefficients
within a transform blocks) and the energy of the previous
token (or tokens) within a block.

In this case the number of coefficient bands is reduced
but more previous token energy bands are supported.

Some initial rebalancing of the default tables has been
by running multiple derf clips at multiple data rates using
the ENTOPY_STATS macro. Further balancing needs to be
done using larger image formatsd especially in regard to
the bigger transform sizes which are not as well represented
in encodings of smaller image formats.

ebfdaa0e0b Prevent filling transform size cache with uninitialized values.
The 32x32 value in case of splitmv was uninitialized. this leads to
all kind of erratic behaviour down the line. Also fill in dummy values
for superblocks in keyframes (the values are currently unused, but we
run into integer overflows anyway, which makes detecting bad cases
harder). Lastly, in case we did not find any RD value at all, don't
set tx_diff to INT_MIN, but instead set it to zero (since if we couldn't
find a mode, it's unlikely that any particular transform would have made
that worse or better; rather, it's likely equally bad for all tx_sizes).

9255ad107f Abstract selection of coef band.
This patch abstracts the selection of the coefficient band
context into a function as a precursor to further experiments
with the coefficient context.

It also removes the large per TX size coefficient band structures
and uses a single matrix for all block sizes within the test function.

This may have an impact on quality (results to follow) but is only an
intermediate step in the process of redefining the context. Also the
quality impact will be larger initially because the default tables will
be out of step with the new banding.

In particular the 4x4 will in this case only use 7 bands. If needed we
can add back block size dependency localized within the function, but
this can follow on after the other changes to the definition of the
context.

1407bdc243 [WIP] Add column-based tiling.
This patch adds column-based tiling. The idea is to make each tile
independently decodable (after reading the common frame header) and
also independendly encodable (minus within-frame cost adjustments in
the RD loop) to speed-up hardware & software en/decoders if they used
multi-threading. Column-based tiling has the added advantage (over
other tiling methods) that it minimizes realtime use-case latency,
since all threads can start encoding data as soon as the first SB-row
worth of data is available to the encoder.

There is some test code that does random tile ordering in the decoder,
to confirm that each tile is indeed independently decodable from other
tiles in the same frame. At tile edges, all contexts assume default
values (i.e. 0, 0 motion vector, no coefficients, DC intra4x4 mode),
and motion vector search and ordering do not cross tiles in the same
frame.
t log

Tile independence is not maintained between frames ATM, i.e. tile 0 of
frame 1 is free to use motion vectors that point into any tile of frame
0. We support 1 (i.e. no tiling), 2 or 4 column-tiles.

The loopfilter crosses tile boundaries. I discussed this briefly with Aki
and he says that's OK. An in-loop loopfilter would need to do some sync
between tile threads, but that shouldn't be a big issue.

Resuls: with tiling disabled, we go up slightly because of improved edge
use in the intra4x4 prediction. With 2 tiles, we lose about ~1% on derf,
~0.35% on HD and ~0.55% on STD/HD. With 4 tiles, we lose another ~1.5%
on derf ~0.77% on HD and ~0.85% on STD/HD. Most of this loss is
concentrated in the low-bitrate end of clips, and most of it is because
of the loss of edges at tile boundaries and the resulting loss of intra
predictors.

TODO:
- more tiles (perhaps allow row-based tiling also, and max. 8 tiles)?
- maybe optionally (for EC purposes), motion vectors themselves
  should not cross tile edges, or we should emulate such borders as
  if they were off-frame, to limit error propagation to within one
  tile only. This doesn't have to be the default behaviour but could
  be an optional bitstream flag.

assembly code, since it is unused. This causes a 50% performance
reduction on the decoder, but that will be resolved when the asm for
the new functions is available.

There is no consensus for whether 6-tap or 2-tap predictors will be
supported in the final codec, so these filters are implemented in
terms of the 8-tap code, so that quality testing of these modes
can continue. Implementing the lower complexity algorithms is a
simple exercise, should it be necessary.

This code produces slightly better results in the EIGHTTAP_SMOOTH
case, since the filter is now applied in only one direction when
the subpel motion is only in one direction. Like the previous code,
the filtering is skipped entirely on full-pel MVs. This combination
seems to give the best quality gains, but this may be indicative of a
bug in the encoder's filter selection, since the encoder could
achieve the result of skipping the filtering on full-pel by selecting
one of the other filters. This should be revisited.

Quality gains on derf positive on almost all clips. The only clip
that seemed to be hurt at all datarates was football
(-0.115% PSNR average, -0.587% min). Overall averages 0.375% PSNR,
0.347% SSIM.

01cafaab1d Adds an error-resilient mode with test
Adds an error-resilient mode where frames can be continued
to be decoded even when there are errors (due to network losses)
on a prior frame. Specifically, backward updates are turned off
and probabilities of various symbols are reset to defaults at
the beginning of each frame. Further, the last frame's mvs are
not used for the mv reference list, and the sorting of the
initial list based on search on previous frames is turned off
as well.

Also adds a test where an arbitrary set of frames are skipped
from decoding to simulate errors. The test verifies (1) that if
the error frames are droppable - i.e. frame buffer updates have
been turned off - there are no mismatch errors for the remaining
frames after the error frames; and (2) if the error-frames are non
droppable, there are not only no decoding errors but the mismatch
PSNR between the decoder's version of the post-error frames and the
encoder's version is at least 20 dB.

This prevents ill-defined behaviour, such as setting x->skip for a mode
that is excluded because of frame-level flags (e.g. filter selection,
compound prediction selection), then not breaking out of the RD loop
because the mode is not allowed, but keeping the flag on. Whatever mode
is iterated through next in the RD loop will then carry this flag, and
all sort of bad stuff happens, such as x->skip being set on intra pred
modes.

7d6b5425d7 New prediction filter
This patch removes the old pred-filter experiment and replaces it
with one that is implemented using the switchable filter framework.

If the pred-filter experiment is enabled, three interopolation
filters are tested during mode selection; the standard 8-tap
interpolation filter, a sharp 8-tap filter and a (new) 8-tap
smoothing filter.

The 6-tap filter code has been preserved for now and if the
enable-6tap experiment is enabled (in addition to the pred-filter
experiment) the original 6-tap filter replaces the new 8-tap smooth
filter in the switchable mode.

The new experiment applies the prediction filter in cases of a
fractional-pel motion vector. Future patches will apply the filter
where the mv is pel-aligned and also to intra predicted blocks.

259b800832 New interpolation filter selection algorithm
Old Scheme:
When SWITCHABLE filter selection is enabled the encoder
evaluates the use of each interpolation filter type and
selects the best one to use at the MB level. A frame-
level flag can be set to force the use of a particular
filter type for all MBs in a frame if it is more efficient
to encode that way. The logic here involved a Q dependent
threshold that assumed that the second 8-tap filter was
a high-pass filter. However, this requires a trip around
the recode loop. If the frame-level flag indicates use
of a particular filter, the other filters are not
evaluated in the pick_mode loop.

New Scheme:
Each filter type is evaluated at the MB level and a record
of the best filter is kept, irrespective of what filter
is signaled at the frame-level. Once all MBs have been
encoded, a decision is made as to what frame-level mode
to set for the *next* frame. If one filter is used by 80%
or more of the MBs, then this filter is forced since it
is assumed that this will be more efficient if the
next frame has similar characteristics. i.e. there is a
one-frame lag between measuring the filter selection and
setting the frame-level mode to use.

4d0ec7aacd Consistently use get_prob(), clip_prob() and newly added clip_pixel().
Add a function clip_pixel() to clip a pixel value to the [0,255] range
of allowed values, and use this where-ever appropriate (e.g. prediction,
reconstruction). Likewise, consistently use the recently added function
clip_prob(), which calculates a binary probability in the [1,255] range.
If possible, try to use get_prob() or its sister get_binary_prob() to
calculate binary probabilities, for consistency.

Since in some places, this means that binary probability calculations
are changed (we use {255,256}*count0/(total) in a range of places,
and all of these are now changed to use 256*count0+(total>>1)/total),
this changes the encoding result, so this patch warrants some extensive
testing.

c456b35fdf 32x32 transform for superblocks.
This adds Debargha's DCT/DWT hybrid and a regular 32x32 DCT, and adds
code all over the place to wrap that in the bitstream/encoder/decoder/RD.

Some implementation notes (these probably need careful review):
- token range is extended by 1 bit, since the value range out of this
  transform is [-16384,16383].
- the coefficients coming out of the FDCT are manually scaled back by
  1 bit, or else they won't fit in int16_t (they are 17 bits). Because
  of this, the RD error scoring does not right-shift the MSE score by
  two (unlike for 4x4/8x8/16x16).
- to compensate for this loss in precision, the quantizer is halved
  also. This is currently a little hacky.
- FDCT and IDCT is double-only right now. Needs a fixed-point impl.
- There are no default probabilities for the 32x32 transform yet; I'm
  simply using the 16x16 luma ones. A future commit will add newly
  generated probabilities for all transforms.
- No ADST version. I don't think we'll add one for this level; if an
  ADST is desired, transform-size selection can scale back to 16x16
  or lower, and use an ADST at that level.

Additional notes specific to Debargha's DWT/DCT hybrid:
- coefficient scale is different for the top/left 16x16 (DCT-over-DWT)
  block than for the rest (DWT pixel differences) of the block. Therefore,
  RD error scoring isn't easily scalable between coefficient and pixel
  domain. Thus, unfortunately, we need to compute the RD distortion in
  the pixel domain until we figure out how to scale these appropriately.

6632330702 Adds switchable filters with superblocks
Allows switchbale filters to be used without mismatch when the
superblock experiment is on.

Also removes a spurious clamping code in decodemv.c which causes
rare encode/decode mismatches.

7ab1d3e49f minor fix to eob check for setting CONTEXT
Previously, the "!=" check is logically incorrect when eob is at 0 and
effective coefficient starting position is 1. This commit should have
no effect on bitstream.

0742b1e4ae Fixing 8x8/4x4 ADST for intra modes with tx select
This patch allows use of 8x8 and 4x4 ADST correctly for Intra
16x16 modes and Intra 8x8 modes when the block size selected
is smaller than the prediction mode. Also includes some cleanups
and refactoring.

Rebase.
