sharpness was not recalculated in vp8cx_pick_filter_level_fast
remove last_filter_type. all values are calculated, don't need to update
the lfi data when it changes.
always use cm->sharpness_level. the extra indirection was annoying.
don't track last frame_type or sharpness_level manually. frame type
only matters for motion search and sharpness_level is taken care of in
frame_init
move function declarations to their proper header

In sub-pixel motion search, the search range is small(+/- 3 pixels).
Preload whole search area from reference buffer into a 32-byte
aligned buffer. Then in search, load reference data from this buffer
instead. This keeps data in cache, and reduces the crossing cache-
line penalty. For tulip clip, tests on Intel Core2 Quad machine(linux)
showed encoder speed improvement:
3.4% at --rt --cpu-used =-4
2.8% at --rt --cpu-used =-3
2.3% at --rt --cpu-used =-2
2.2% at --rt --cpu-used =-1
Test on Atom notebook showed only 1.1% speed improvement(speed=-4).
Test on Xeon machine also showed less improvement, since unaligned
data access latency is greatly reduced in newer cores.
Next, I will apply similar idea to other 2 sub-pixel search functions
for encoding speed > 4.
Make this change exclusively for x86 platforms.

This adds the magic .note.GNU-stack section at the end of each ARM
asm file (when built with gas), indicating that a non-executable
stack is allowed.
Without this section, the linker will assume the object requires an
executable stack by default, forcing an executable stack for the
entire program.

With this fix, the experimental branch now builds and encodes correctly
with the following two configure options respectively:
--enable-experimental --enable-t8x8
--enable-experimental

The auto merge process pull and merge commits from public git or master
branch. These automerges while worked well most time, but has created
a few problems. This commit fixed several issues existed long before
the latest 8x8 transform commit.

This is done by expanding luma row to 32-byte alignment, since
there is currently a bunch of code that assumes that
uv_stride == y_stride/2 (see, for example, vp8/common/postproc.c,
common/reconinter.c, common/arm/neon/recon16x16mb_neon.asm,
encoder/temporal_filter.c, and possibly others; I haven't done a
full audit).
It also uses replaces the hardcoded border of 16 in a number of
encoder buffers with VP8BORDERINPIXELS (currently 32), as the
chroma rows start at an offset of border/2.
Together, these two changes have the nice advantage that simply
dumping the frame memory as a contiguous blob produces a valid,
if padded, image.

This reverts commit b73a3693e5.
This version of the check doesn't work with generic-gnu, and figuring
out the correct symbol version at configure time is probably more work
than this is worth. May revisit in the future.

allowing the compiler to inline this function. For real-time
encodes, this gave a boost of 1% to 2.5%, depending on the
speed setting.

This patch attempts to improve the handling of CBR streams with
respect to the short term buffering requirements. The "buffer level"
is changed to be an average over the rc buffer, rather than a long
running average. Overshoot is also tracked over the same interval
and the golden frame targets suppressed accordingly to correct for
overly aggressive boosting.
Testing shows that this is fairly consistently positive in one
metric or another -- some clips that show significant decreases
in quality have better buffering characteristics, others show
improvenents in both.
