e0846c9c8c CQ Mode
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.

b0da9b399d Add psnr/ssim tuning option
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.

647df00f30 postproc : Re-work posproc calling to allow more flags.
Debugging in postproc needs more flags to allow for specific
block types to be turned on or off in the visualizations.

Must be enabled with --enable-postproc-visualizer during
configuration time.

94c52e4da8 cosmetics: trim trailing whitespace
When the license headers were updated, they accidentally contained
trailing whitespace, so unfortunately we have to touch all the files
again.

b7492341ac install includes in DIST_DIR/include/vpx, move vpx_codec/ to vpx/
This renames the vpx_codec/ directory to vpx/, to allow applications
to more consistently reference these includes with the vpx/ prefix.
This allows the includes to be installed in /usr/local/include/vpx
rather than polluting the system includes directory with an
excessive number of includes.
