Turns off the DISABLE_RC_LONG_TERM_MEM macro and makes other changes
in the way the bits are updated, to make 2-pass rate control track
target bitrates closer.

This commit optimizes the bit allocation for the non-RD coding flow.
It applies slightly better quantizer to the frames, where all blocks
run a non-RD partition search. Such frames typically have better
rate-distortion trade off, thus improving the reconstruction quality
for next few frames reference at reasonably low increment in rate
cost.
The coding performance for rtc set at speed -5 with error-resilient
tuned on and rate control set as cbr is improved by 19.58%. It improved
the coding speed by about 10% for a portion of local test clips.

This commit enables the non-RD mode decision coding flow to
adaptively apply partition search in non-refresh frame, when the
collocated block in previous frame suggests there might be a motion
activity. It refactors the update_state_rt() function to support
buffer swap of mode_info struct, thereby unifying the encoding
stage across various non-RD coding modes.
It provides 5% compression performance gains in speed -6 for rtc
test set, at about 12% speed slow down.

Fix so that vp9_update_segment_aq() will use the correct (i..e, chosen)
encoding mode (from ctx struct) in update_state.

This commit allows the recursive non-RD partition search to early
terminate sub search tree when the cumulative rate-distortion is
already above the best available.

This commit added a speed feature to make the logic of calculating
skip_recode on a block level more explicit. This also enable the
feature to be enabled at speed 5 where the previous logic is too
conservative, help gain back the lost speed for --rt(-5).

There were a few conflicts between the new non-RD partition search
and recent clean-up patches, which were not caught by git control.
This commit fixed these issues.

This commit takes out the if statements on using adaptive motion
search flag. This feature is automatically enabled in non-RD mode
decision flow for variable partition types search.

This commit enables a recursive partition type search for non-RD
mode decisions. It allows the encoder to choose variable block
sizes in a 64x64 block based on rate-distortion modeling.
It improves speed -6 coding efficiency for rtc set by 2.4%. Most
of the gains come from 32-40dB range, where many sequences gain
about 5% to 20%. Local tests suggest there is no speed change.

This commit reformats non-RD coding flow layout to allow mode
decision with fixed and variable block sizes.

The flag x->skip_recode interacts badly with
the cpi->sf.use_nonrd_pick_mode and
cpi->sf.skip_encode_sb speed settings.
Restricting the use of the skip_decode flag when
these other speed choices are in use helps quality
for speeds 3 and 4 by a large amount with only a
small impact on speed.
Average improvmentes for 2 pass speed 4:
Derf +8.8%
Yt + 10.53%
Std-Hd +6.95%
yt-hd + 22.95%
