Some code re-factored / moved to allow the main
pack operation inside the recode loop so that the
size estimate is accurate.
Deletion of some redundant code relating to one pass.
Aproximate improvement over March 27 code base:
Derf 0.0%, YT 0.5%, YThd 0.3% Std_hd 0.25%

For now the interface elements have been left in place
to make sure existing parameter files work but parameters
relating to drop frame wont do anything.

Since this is the only ABI incompatible change since the last release,
convert it to use the control interface instead. The member of the
configuration struct is replaced with the VP8E_SET_MAX_INTRA_BITRATE_PCT
control.
More significant API changes were expected to be forthcoming when this
control was first introduced, and while they continue to be expected,
it's not worth breaking compatibility for only this change.

Allow the encoder to inform the application that the encoded frame will not
be used as a reference.

With this commit frames can be received partition-by-partition
from the encoder and passed partition-by-partition to the
decoder.
At the encoder-side this makes it easier to split encoded
frames at partition boundaries, useful when packetizing
frames. When VPX_CODEC_USE_OUTPUT_PARTITION is enabled,
several VPX_CODEC_CX_FRAME_PKT packets will be returned
from vpx_codec_get_cx_data(), containing one partition
each. The partition_id (starting at 0) specifies the decoding
order of the partitions. All partitions but the last has
the VPX_FRAME_IS_FRAGMENT flag set.
At the decoder this opens up the possibility of decoding partition
N even though partition N-1 was lost (given that independent
partitioning has been enabled in the encoder) if more info
about the missing parts of the stream is available through
external signaling.
Each partition is passed to the decoder through the
vpx_codec_decode() function, with the data pointer pointing
to the start of the partition, and with data_sz equal to the
size of the partition. Missing partitions can be signaled to
the decoder by setting data != NULL and data_sz = 0. When
all partitions have been given to the decoder "end of data"
should be signaled by calling vpx_codec_decode() with
data = NULL and data_sz = 0.
The first partition is the first partition according to the
VP8 bitstream + the uncompressed data chunk + DCT address
offsets if multiple residual partitions are used.

This patch changes the rc_undershoot_pct and rc_overshoot_pct controls
to set the "aggressiveness" of rate adaptation, by limiting the
amount of difference between the target buffer level and the actual
buffer level which is applied to the target frame rate for this frame.
This patch was initially provided by arosenberg at logitech.com as
an attachment to issue #270. It was modified to separate these controls
from the other unrelated modifications in that patch, as well as to
use the pre-existing variables rather than introducing new ones.

The firstpass motion map consists of an 8-bit flag for
each MB indicating how strongly the firstpass code
believes it should be filtered during the second pass
ARNR filtering.
For long or large format material the motion map can
become extremely large and hamper the operation of
the encoding process.
This change removes the motion map altogether, leaving
the second pass to rely on the magnitude of the motion
compensated error to determine the filter weight to
use for the MB during ARNR filtering.
Tests on the derf set indicate that the effect of this
change is neutral, with some small wins and losses. The
motion map has therefore been removed based on
a cost/benefit evaluation.

The CQ level was not using the q_trans[] array to convert
to a 0-127 range as per min and maxq
Experimental change to try and match the reconstruction
error for forced key frames approximately to that of the
previous frame by means of the recode loop. Though this
may cause extra recodes and the recode behavior has not
been optimized, it can only happen on forced key frames.

The merge includes hooks to for CQ mode and other code
changes merged from the test branch.
CQ mode attempts to maintain a more stable quantizer within a clip
whilst also trying to adhere to a guidline maximum bitrate.
The existing target data rate parameter is used to specify the
guideline maximum bitrate.
A new parameter allows the user to specify a target CQ level.
For normal (non kf/gf/arf) frames, the quantizer will not drop BELOW the
user specified value (0-63). However, in some cases the encoder may
choose to impose a target CQ that is above that specified by the user,
if it estimates that consistent use of the target value is not compatible
with guideline maximum bitrate.

Add a new encoder control, VP8E_SET_TUNING, to allow the application
to inform the encoder that the material will benefit from certain
tuning. Expose this control as the --tune option to vpxenc. The args
helper is expanded to support enumerated arguments by name or value.
Two tunings are provided by this patch, PSNR (default) and SSIM.
Activity masking is made dependent on setting --tune=ssim, as the
current implementation hurts speed (10%) and PSNR (2.7% avg,
10% peak) too much for it to be a default yet.
