The commit replaces run-time initialization of cosine constants with
static constant values, which provides ~30% relief on slow speed. The
real solution, however will be to implement integer versions of those
functions that current use float/double.

The forward and inverse hybrid transforms are now performed using
single function modules, where the dimension is sent as argument.
Added an inline function clip8b to clip the reconstruction pixels
into range of 0-255.

Merged in the high_precision_mv experiment to make it easier

coef_update_probs3().

Fixed the code review comments.
Under the htrans8x8 experiment the 8X8 DCT in the
I8X8 mode is replaced with a combination of 8X8 ADST and
DCT.
Overall coding gains with the htrans8x8 experiment are:
derf: 0.486
std-hd: 1.040
hd: 1.063
yt: 0.506
Note that part of the gain comes from bigger transforms
(8x8 instead of 4x4) and part comes from replacing the DCT
wth the ADST.

Apply 2D-DCT transform of dimension 8x8 to encode prediction
residuals of I8X8 mode.
Brought back block type 3 probability context model for 8x8 tokens,
which is used for the coefficients of Y blocks in I8x8 modes. The
coefficient costs estimate of I8X8 mode in rate-distortion is also
changed appropriately.

The sync interval for the multithreaded encoder was considered as not changing
during the encoding. This is not true if picture size is changed.
The encoder could dead-lock because the main thread and the other threads were
using different sync interval.

After the picture size was changed to a bigger one, the internal memory was
corrupted and multithreaded encoder was deadlocking.
Memory for last frame's MVs, segmentation map and active map were allocated when
the compressor was created (vp8_create_compressor). Buffers need to be
reallocated when picture size is changed, so, the allocation was moved to
vp8_alloc_compressor_data, which is called every time the picture is resized.

Merged the enhanced_interp experiment.
Found and fixed a bug in the include files framework, whereby
certain encoder files were still using the old INTERP_EXTEND
value of 3 instead of 4. The thresholds for mv range mcomp.c
need a small adjustment to prevent crashes.
The results are more or less unchanged.

Allows for swtiching/setting interpolation filters at the MB
level. A frame level flag indicates whether to use a specifc
filter for the entire frame or to signal the interpolation
filter for each MB. When switchable filters are used, the
encoder chooses between 8-tap and 8-tap sharp filters. The
code currently has options to explore other variations as well,
which will be cleaned up subsequently.
One issue with the framework is that encoding is slow. I
tried to do some tricks to speed things up but it is still slow.
Decoding speed should not be affected since the number of
filter taps remain unchanged.
With the current version, we are up 0.5% on derf on average but
some videos city/mobile improve by close to 4 and 2% respectively.
If we did a full-search by turning the SEARCH_BEST_FILTER flag
on, the results are somewhat better.
The framework can be combined with filtered prediction, and I
seek feedback regarding that.
Rebased.

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.

SAD returns unsigned values. Make all the declarations the same.
Remove bestsad initialization and check. It is always set to the
result of a SAD call so it will never remain UINT_MAX
Use ja instead of jg to test unsigned comparison instead of signed.
Update test.

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.
Change-Id: Idcdaa2d0cf3a7f782b7d888626b7cf22a4ffb5c1
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.
Change-Id: I61afa4f313630e75b7cbdd5742e230e8724a988a
Adds ADST/DCT hybrid transform coding for Intra4x4 mode.
The ADST is applied to directions in which the boundary
pixels are used for prediction, while DCT applied to
directions without corresponding boundary prediction.
Adds enum TX_TYPE in b_mode_infor to indicate the transform
type used.
Make coding style consistent with google style.
Fixed the commented issues.
