The ambient qp and active worse/best qp were reset for every frame
when temporal layers is on. This change removes this reset.
As this affects the target size for forced key frames
(it will actually lower the size somewhat), we increased the
inital boost factor to compensate.

Precalculated block ptrs do not need updates during encoding.
Set these at init stage.
Moved the allocation of 'mt_current_mb_col' (last encoded MB on each
row) to vp8_alloc_compressor_data(), so that it is correctly
reallocated when frame size is changing.

Added drop_frame support in multi-resolution encoder.
If one frame is dropped at a lower-resolution level, the next
upper-resolution level encoder needs to encode that frame
independently without any lower-resolution level motion
information.
Another issue is that if one frame is dropped at some but not all
resolution levels, a frame after that one may use different set
of reference frames at different resolution levels. This reference
frame asynchronization could degrade motion search precision in
upper-resolution level encoding, which uses lower-resolution level
motion result. This change compares the lower-resolution and upper-
resolution level's reference frames. If they are not the same, the
upper-resolution level encoder can not use lower-resolution level
motion result.

Changes relating to Issue 411
Removed code that was clearing down the segmentation data each
frame.
Added range/parameter checking in vp8_set_roimap(); Return error
if called when cyclic_refresh is enabled.
Correct setup_features() so that it sets or clears the segment update
flags as appropriate.

Allows building the library with the gcc -pedantic option, for improved
portabilty. In particular, this commit removes usage of C99/C++ style
single-line comments and dynamic struct initializers. This is a
continuation of the work done in commit 97b766a46, which removed most
of these warnings for decode only builds.

Frame dropping decision is made by evaluating both current frame
and next frame's buffer_level. If both buffer_levels are less
than drop_mark, next frame is dropped. When frame dropping is
over, namely, buffer_level becomes normal again, we need to
reset decimation_count to 0.

The logic for spatial resizing is done after the Q is selected for the
frame. This causes a problem that the Q we select for the (resized)
key frame may be based on a different resolution than the frame we
will encode.
This fix is to ensure that, when resize is on, the selected Q is still
based on the resolution of the frame to be encoded.

After a key frame encoding, the frame type could change while
filtering is still going on. Pass the frame type as parameter to the
loopfilter function and don't read it from common storage.
vp8cx_set_alt_lf_level has to be done before packing the stream.
Currently alt_lf_level is not used so there hasn't been any visible
problem here.

Resolution changes in calls to vpx_codec_enc_config_set() would cause

In multi-resolution encoding, frame_type decision for each frame
is made by the lowest-resolution encoder. For all other higher-
resolution encoders, kf_mode is always set to VPX_KF_DISABLED,
and they are forced to use the same frame_type picked by the
lowest-resolution encoder.

Change If4321cc5 fixed a bug caused by forward declarations not being
kept in sync across C files, resulting in a function call with the
wrong arguments. The commit moves the affected function declarations
into a header file, along with the other symbols from encodeframe.c
that were being sloppily shared.

Removes all runtime initialization of global data. This commit is a
squashed version of the following series cherry-picked from master.
This is necessary because of a change that was merged to the tester
that depends on the scaler being moved to the RTCD framework, which
is a worthwhile thing to include in Eider anyway.
- a91b42f02 Makes all global data in entropy.c const
- b35a0db0e Makes all global data in tokenize.c const
- 441cac8ea Makes all mode token tables const
- 5948a0210 Ports vpx_xcaler to new RTCD method
- 317d4244c Makes all mode token tables const part 2

Race was introduced by https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/15563.
If loopfilter related config params were changed between frames, or
after a KEY frame, there could be a mismatch between encoder's and
decoder's recontructed image. In worst case, when frame buffers are
reallocated because of a size change, the loopfilter could
do an invalid data access (segmentation fault).
Fixes:
Sync with the loopfilter before applying any encoder changes in
vp8_change_config().
Moved the loopfilter synching to the top of
encode_frame_to_data_rate() so that it's done before any alteration of
the encoder.

RD costs were local to MACROBLOCK data and had to be copied all the
time to each thread's MACROBLOCK data. Tables moved to a common place
and only pointers are setup for each encoding thread.
vp8_cost_tokens() generates 'int' costs so changed all types to be
int (i.e. removed unsigned).
NOTE: Could do some more cleaning in vp8cx_init_mbrthread_data().

Look for changes in the codec's configured w/h instead of its active
w/h when forcing keyframes. Otherwise calls to vp8_change_config()
will force a keyframe when spatial resampling is active.

When producing an invisible ARF, the time stamp counters aren't
updated since the last time stamp is seen by the codec twice. The
prior code was trapping this case with refresh_alt_ref, but this isn't
correct for other uses of the ARF. Instead, use the show_frame flag.

This change added a motion search skipping mechanism similar
to what we did in second pass. For a macroblock that is very
similar to the macroblock at same location on last frame,
we can set its mv to be zero, and skip motion search. This
improves first-pass performance for slide shows and video
conferencing clips with a slight PSNR loss.

Produce the token partitions on-the-fly, while processing each MB.
Context is updated at the beginning of each frame based on the
previoud frame's counters. Optimally encoder outputs partitions in
separate buffers. For frame based output, partitions are concatenated
internally.
Limitations:
- enabled just in combination with realtime-only mode
- number of encoding threads has to be equal or less than the
number of token partitions. For this reason, by default the encoder
will do 8 token partitions.
- vpxenc supports partition output (-P) just in combination with
IVF output format (--ivf)
Performance:
- Realtime encoder can be up to 13% faster (ARM) depending on the number
of threads and bitrate settings. Constant gain over the 5-16 speed
range.
- Token buffer reduced from one frame to 8 MBs
Quality:
- quality is affected by the delayed context updates. This again
dependents on input material, speed and bitrate settings. For VC
style input the loss seen is up to 0.2dB. If error-resilient=2
mode is used than the effect of this change is negligible.
Example:
./configure --enable-realtime-only --enable-onthefly-bitpacking
./vpxenc --rt --end-usage=1 --fps=30000/1000 -w 640 -h 480
--target-bitrate=1000 --token-parts=3 --static-thresh=2000

Second shot at this...
Sync with loopfilter thread as late as possible, usually just at the
beginning of next frame encoding. This returns control to application
faster and allows a better multicore scaling.
When PSNR packets are generated the final filtered frame is needed
imediatly so we cannot delay the sync. Same has to be done when
internal frame is previewed.
