Preliminary tests indicated that these changes make cost_coeffs
approximately 20% faster which is a 2% improvement overall

This bug made the rd loop use one-side obmc (compound of the current
predictor and the predictors of the left mi's, while the above ones
are ignored by mistake) to determine whether to use obmc. This fix
improved the compression performance by ~0.6% on different test sets.

Removes the USE_DST2 flag that was on by default. DST2 performs
slightly better that DST1 and is faster to compute.

Using this we can eliminate large numbers of calls to predict intra,
and is also faster than most of the variance functions it replaces.
This is an equivalence transform so coding performance is unaffected.
Encoder speedup is approx 7% when var_tx, super_tx and ext_tx are all
enabled.

In this experiment, an obmc inter prediction mode is enabled for
>= 8X8 inter blocks. When the obmc flag is on, the regular block-
based motion compensation will be refined by using predictors of
the above and left blocks.
Fixed some compatibility issues with vp9_highbitdepth, supertx,
ref_mv, and ext_interp.

Adds a wiener filter based restoration scheme in loop which can
be optionally selected instead of the bilateral filter.
The LMMSE filter generated per frame is a separable symmetric 7
tap filter. Three parameters for each of horizontal and vertical
filters are transmitted in the bitstream. The fourth parameter
is obtained assuming the sum is normalized to 1.
Also integerizes the bilateral filters, along with other
refactoring necessary in order to support the new switchable
restoration type framework.
derflr: -0.75% BDRATE
[A lot of videos still prefer bilateral, however since many frames
now use the simpler separable filter, the decoding speed is
much better].
Further experiments to follow, related to replacing the bilateral.

This commit adds computation of PSNRHVS for highbitdepth build, it
also adds tests to make sure the calculation of psnrhvs metric for
10 and 12 bit correct.

This commit aligns the rate-distortion metrics for both luma and
chroma components in super transform rate-distortion optimization.
It improves the coding gains due to var-tx and supertx experiments
by 0.2% for high resolution test sets.

An issue exists with reference_masking in non-rd pickmode for spatial
scaling. It was kept off for internal dynamic resizing and svc, this
change is to keep it off also for external dynamic resizing.
Update to external resize test, and update TODO to re-enable this
at frame level when references have same scale as source.

This commit adds the computation of fastSSIM for highbitdepth build,
it also modifies the hbdmetric test to be more generic and applicable
for fastSSIM.
The 255 used for calculating ssim constants c1 and c2 is not exactly
scaled by 4x and 16x to 1023 and 4095, therefore requries the metric
test to have a thresold more tolerant than 0, currently at 0.03dB.

obmc: We add an obmc prediction mode at superblock level.
When it is enabled, predictors of the above and left blocks
are used to refine the regular block-based motion compensation.

For dynamic resizing (whether the new codec size is determined internally
or externally set by user), we should for now keep rc.resize_allowed enabled.
This prevent the use of referene_masking for real-time mode
(in set_rt_speed_feature()).

Setting FIXED_TX_TYPE as 1 makes the encoder skip tx_type search,
about twice as fast.
This speed feature is off by defualt; we can turn it on when we
want to quickly test new ideas.

unscaled_value() from being called. unscaled_value()

This commit aligns the rate-distortion metric for the recursive
transform block partitioning and the super transform. It resolves
the conflicts between these two experiments. The coding performance
gains of the combined experiments (var-tx + super-tx) has been
improved:
derf 0.89% -> 1.9%
hevcmr 1.06% -> 1.8%
stdhd 0.29% -> 1.4%
hevchr 0.80% -> 2.3%

These costs are added in separately just before the computed
ref_costs_* are added in the calling functions, so they were
effectively double counted.
