Since this is the only ABI incompatible change since the last release,
convert it to use the control interface instead. The member of the
configuration struct is replaced with the VP8E_SET_MAX_INTRA_BITRATE_PCT
control.
More significant API changes were expected to be forthcoming when this
control was first introduced, and while they continue to be expected,
it's not worth breaking compatibility for only this change.

This change implemented same idea in change "Preload reference area
to an intermediate buffer in sub-pixel motion search." The changes
were made to vp8_find_best_sub_pixel_step() and vp8_find_best_half
_pixel_step() functions which are called when speed >= 5. Test
result (using tulip clip):
1. On Core2 Quad machine(Linux)
rt mode, speed (-5 ~ -8), encoding speed gain: 2% ~ 3%
rt mode, speed (-9 ~ -11), encoding speed gain: 1% ~ 2%
rt mode, speed (-12 ~ -14), no noticeable encoding speed gain
2. On Xeon machine(Linux)
Test on speed (-5 ~ -14) didn't show noticeable speed change.

There were some situations that the start motion vectors were
out of range. This fix adjusted range checks to make sure they
are checked and clamped.

sharpness was not recalculated in vp8cx_pick_filter_level_fast
remove last_filter_type. all values are calculated, don't need to update
the lfi data when it changes.
always use cm->sharpness_level. the extra indirection was annoying.
don't track last frame_type or sharpness_level manually. frame type
only matters for motion search and sharpness_level is taken care of in
frame_init
move function declarations to their proper header

In sub-pixel motion search, the search range is small(+/- 3 pixels).
Preload whole search area from reference buffer into a 32-byte
aligned buffer. Then in search, load reference data from this buffer
instead. This keeps data in cache, and reduces the crossing cache-
line penalty. For tulip clip, tests on Intel Core2 Quad machine(linux)
showed encoder speed improvement:
3.4% at --rt --cpu-used =-4
2.8% at --rt --cpu-used =-3
2.3% at --rt --cpu-used =-2
2.2% at --rt --cpu-used =-1
Test on Atom notebook showed only 1.1% speed improvement(speed=-4).
Test on Xeon machine also showed less improvement, since unaligned
data access latency is greatly reduced in newer cores.
Next, I will apply similar idea to other 2 sub-pixel search functions
for encoding speed > 4.
Make this change exclusively for x86 platforms.

This adds the magic .note.GNU-stack section at the end of each ARM
asm file (when built with gas), indicating that a non-executable
stack is allowed.
Without this section, the linker will assume the object requires an
executable stack by default, forcing an executable stack for the
entire program.

This is done by expanding luma row to 32-byte alignment, since
there is currently a bunch of code that assumes that
uv_stride == y_stride/2 (see, for example, vp8/common/postproc.c,
common/reconinter.c, common/arm/neon/recon16x16mb_neon.asm,
encoder/temporal_filter.c, and possibly others; I haven't done a
full audit).
It also uses replaces the hardcoded border of 16 in a number of
encoder buffers with VP8BORDERINPIXELS (currently 32), as the
chroma rows start at an offset of border/2.
Together, these two changes have the nice advantage that simply
dumping the frame memory as a contiguous blob produces a valid,
if padded, image.

This reverts commit b73a3693e5.
This version of the check doesn't work with generic-gnu, and figuring
out the correct symbol version at configure time is probably more work
than this is worth. May revisit in the future.

allowing the compiler to inline this function. For real-time
encodes, this gave a boost of 1% to 2.5%, depending on the
speed setting.

This patch attempts to improve the handling of CBR streams with
respect to the short term buffering requirements. The "buffer level"
is changed to be an average over the rc buffer, rather than a long
running average. Overshoot is also tracked over the same interval
and the golden frame targets suppressed accordingly to correct for
overly aggressive boosting.
Testing shows that this is fairly consistently positive in one
metric or another -- some clips that show significant decreases
in quality have better buffering characteristics, others show
improvenents in both.

Optimized C-code of the following functions:
- vp8_tokenize_mb
- tokenize1st_order_b
- tokenize2nd_order_b
Gives ~1-5% speed-up for RT encoding on Cortex-A8/A9
depending on encoding parameters.

glibc implements some checking on longjmp() calls by replacing it with
an internal function __longjmp_chk(), when FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined.
This can be problematic when compiling the library under one version of
glibc and running it under another. Work around this issue for the one
symbol affected for now, before taking out the undef hammer.

Previously allocated more memory than necessary for yuv buffers.
This makes it harder to track bugs with reading uninitialized
data.
