Commit 0d6980d7a1 removed some use
of the skip_txfm optimization, and the rest are not productive.
The current use of this optimization is only used with --good
and --cpu-used >= 3, however the overhead of this is higher than the
speedup it yields.
Removing this, and subsequently simplifying model_rd_for_sb yields
a net encoder speedup:
--cpu-used=0 ~1.5% faster
--cpu-used=3 ~2.0% faster
The code simplification is also significant.

Add the ability to pick between 3 quantization profiles.
The profile is chosen based on the entropy context at the
block level.

This commit refactors the transform and quantization process for
sub8x8 blocks and unifies the related functions.

Replace the expanded zero-bin quantizer with uniform quantizer in
the recursive transform block partitioning scheme. This improves
the compression performance by 0.4% for lowres.

The tile boundaries should now be respected even between tile rows.

Properly restore the rate cost in the inner search loop of obmc
prediction. This avoids unexpected encoding behavior. It fixes

This patch removed the experiment of BIDIR_PRED and merged the feature
into the experiment of EXT_REFS:
(1) Each frame now has up to 6 reference frames, namely
LAST_FRAME, LAST2_FRAME, LAST3_FRAME, GOLDEN_FRAME, (forward) and
BWDREF_FRAME, ALTREF_FRAME (backward);
LAST4_FRAME has been removed;
(2) First pass still keeps the 8 updates:
KF_UPDATE, LF_UPDATE, GF_UPDATE, ARF_UPDATE, OVERLAY_UPDATE, and
BRF_UPDATE, LAST_BIPRED_UPDATE, BI_PRED_UPDATE;
(3) show_existing_frame==1 is supported in the experiment of EXT_REFS;
(4) New encoding modes are added for both single-ref and compound cases,
through the use of the 2 extra forward references (LAST2 & LAST3)
and the 1 extra backward reference (BWDREF).

If in vp10/encoder/firstpass.h, change BFG_INTERVAL from 2 to 3, i.e. to
use 2 bi-predictive frames than 1, a further improvement may be
obtained:

This commit reworks the transform and quantization unit. It enables
the use of adaptive quantization for intra modes. This further
improves the compression performance:
lowres 0.36%
midres 0.79%
hdres 0.73%
The key frame coding performance is improved:
lowres 1.7%
midres 1.9%
hdres 3.3%
The overall coding gains are:
lowres 1.1%
midres 1.8%
hdres 2.3%

Move filter intra modes search to the end, after regular

This commit combines uniform quantizer with trellis based coefficient
level optimization. It improves the codebase compression performance:
lowres 0.8%
midres 1.0%
hdres 1.6%
Note that the current trellis optimization unit is using C code. This
will make the cost of the overall quantization process slower. A number
of optimizations will come up next.

This experiment implements non-uniform quantization where
the width of the bins increases gradually to more closely
match a laplacian distribution of the coeficcients.

The inter prediction residual can undergo different transform types
during the rate-distortion optimization search. The assumption used
in this speed feature no longer holds true. This commit removes the
related code to clean up the codebase and clear out unit test
failure in higher speed setting.
