eb939f45b8 Spatial resamping of ZEROMV predictors
This patch allows coding frames using references of different
resolution, in ZEROMV mode. For compound prediction, either
reference may be scaled.

To test, I use the resize_test and enable WRITE_RECON_BUFFER
in vp9_onyxd_if.c. It's also useful to apply this patch to
test/i420_video_source.h:

  --- a/test/i420_video_source.h
  +++ b/test/i420_video_source.h
  @@ -93,6 +93,7 @@ class I420VideoSource : public VideoSource {

     virtual void FillFrame() {
       // Read a frame from input_file.
  +    if (frame_ != 3)
       if (fread(img_->img_data, raw_sz_, 1, input_file_) == 0) {
         limit_ = frame_;
       }

This forces the frame that the resolution changes on to be coded
with no motion, only scaling, and improves the quality of the
result.

35bc02c6eb Optimize vp9_dc_only_idct_add_c function
Wrote SSE2 version of vp9_dc_only_idct_add_c function. In order to
improve performance, clipped the absolute diff values to [0, 255].
This allowed us to keep the additions/subtractions in 8 bits.
Test showed an over 2% decoder performance increase.

6a4f708c25 Refactor inter recon functions to support scaling
Ensure that all inter prediction goes through a common code path
that takes scaling into account. Removes a bunch of duplicate
1st/2nd predictor code. Also introduces a 16x8 mode for 8x8
MVs, similar to the 8x4 trick we were doing before. This has an
unexpected effect with EIGHTTAP_SMOOTH, so it's disabled in that
case for now.

42d6be8080 Remove 2nd-order transform for first-order DC coefficients.
Since addition of the larger-scale transforms (16x16, 32x32), these
don't give a benefit at macroblock-sizes anymore. At superblock-sizes,
2nd-order transform was never used over the larger transforms. Future
work should test whether there is a benefit for that use case.

17db5d00be enable bitstream lossless support
1. Added a bit in frame header to  to indicate if a frame is encoded
in lossless mode, so decoder does not make the decision based on Q0
2. Minor changes to make sure that lossy coding works same as when
the lossless experiment is not enabled.
3. Renamed function pointers for transforms to be consistent, using
prefix fwd_txm and inv_txm for forward and inverse respectively

To encode in lossless mode, using "--lossless=1 --min-q=0 --max-q=0"
with vpxenc.

1407bdc243 [WIP] Add column-based tiling.
This patch adds column-based tiling. The idea is to make each tile
independently decodable (after reading the common frame header) and
also independendly encodable (minus within-frame cost adjustments in
the RD loop) to speed-up hardware & software en/decoders if they used
multi-threading. Column-based tiling has the added advantage (over
other tiling methods) that it minimizes realtime use-case latency,
since all threads can start encoding data as soon as the first SB-row
worth of data is available to the encoder.

There is some test code that does random tile ordering in the decoder,
to confirm that each tile is indeed independently decodable from other
tiles in the same frame. At tile edges, all contexts assume default
values (i.e. 0, 0 motion vector, no coefficients, DC intra4x4 mode),
and motion vector search and ordering do not cross tiles in the same
frame.
t log

Tile independence is not maintained between frames ATM, i.e. tile 0 of
frame 1 is free to use motion vectors that point into any tile of frame
0. We support 1 (i.e. no tiling), 2 or 4 column-tiles.

The loopfilter crosses tile boundaries. I discussed this briefly with Aki
and he says that's OK. An in-loop loopfilter would need to do some sync
between tile threads, but that shouldn't be a big issue.

Resuls: with tiling disabled, we go up slightly because of improved edge
use in the intra4x4 prediction. With 2 tiles, we lose about ~1% on derf,
~0.35% on HD and ~0.55% on STD/HD. With 4 tiles, we lose another ~1.5%
on derf ~0.77% on HD and ~0.85% on STD/HD. Most of this loss is
concentrated in the low-bitrate end of clips, and most of it is because
of the loss of edges at tile boundaries and the resulting loss of intra
predictors.

TODO:
- more tiles (perhaps allow row-based tiling also, and max. 8 tiles)?
- maybe optionally (for EC purposes), motion vectors themselves
  should not cross tile edges, or we should emulate such borders as
  if they were off-frame, to limit error propagation to within one
  tile only. This doesn't have to be the default behaviour but could
  be an optional bitstream flag.

01cafaab1d Adds an error-resilient mode with test
Adds an error-resilient mode where frames can be continued
to be decoded even when there are errors (due to network losses)
on a prior frame. Specifically, backward updates are turned off
and probabilities of various symbols are reset to defaults at
the beginning of each frame. Further, the last frame's mvs are
not used for the mv reference list, and the sorting of the
initial list based on search on previous frames is turned off
as well.

Also adds a test where an arbitrary set of frames are skipped
from decoding to simulate errors. The test verifies (1) that if
the error frames are droppable - i.e. frame buffer updates have
been turned off - there are no mismatch errors for the remaining
frames after the error frames; and (2) if the error-frames are non
droppable, there are not only no decoding errors but the mismatch
PSNR between the decoder's version of the post-error frames and the
encoder's version is at least 20 dB.

4b65837bc6 Generalize and increase frame coding contexts
Previously there were two frame coding contexts tracked, one for normal
frames and one for alt-ref frames. Generalize this by signalling the
context to use in the bitstream, rather than tieing it to the alt ref
refresh bit. Also increase the number of contexts available to 4, which
may be useful for temporal scalability.

da832a80e4 Start to anonymize reference frames
Remove lst_fb_idx, gld_fb_idx, alt_fb_idx, refresh_last_frame,
refresh_golden_frame, refresh_alt_ref_frame from common. Gold/Alt are
encode side conventions. From the decoder's perspective, we want to be
dealing with numbered references.

Updates to active_ref 2 signal mode context switches, vestigial from
refresh_alt_ref_frame. This needs some clean up to make sense with
increased numbers of reference frames, as well as reimplementing the
swapping of alt/golden which was previously done using the
buffer-to-buffer copy mechanism removed in an earlier commit.

c456b35fdf 32x32 transform for superblocks.
This adds Debargha's DCT/DWT hybrid and a regular 32x32 DCT, and adds
code all over the place to wrap that in the bitstream/encoder/decoder/RD.

Some implementation notes (these probably need careful review):
- token range is extended by 1 bit, since the value range out of this
  transform is [-16384,16383].
- the coefficients coming out of the FDCT are manually scaled back by
  1 bit, or else they won't fit in int16_t (they are 17 bits). Because
  of this, the RD error scoring does not right-shift the MSE score by
  two (unlike for 4x4/8x8/16x16).
- to compensate for this loss in precision, the quantizer is halved
  also. This is currently a little hacky.
- FDCT and IDCT is double-only right now. Needs a fixed-point impl.
- There are no default probabilities for the 32x32 transform yet; I'm
  simply using the 16x16 luma ones. A future commit will add newly
  generated probabilities for all transforms.
- No ADST version. I don't think we'll add one for this level; if an
  ADST is desired, transform-size selection can scale back to 16x16
  or lower, and use an ADST at that level.

Additional notes specific to Debargha's DWT/DCT hybrid:
- coefficient scale is different for the top/left 16x16 (DCT-over-DWT)
  block than for the rest (DWT pixel differences) of the block. Therefore,
  RD error scoring isn't easily scalable between coefficient and pixel
  domain. Thus, unfortunately, we need to compute the RD distortion in
  the pixel domain until we figure out how to scale these appropriately.

0742b1e4ae Fixing 8x8/4x4 ADST for intra modes with tx select
This patch allows use of 8x8 and 4x4 ADST correctly for Intra
16x16 modes and Intra 8x8 modes when the block size selected
is smaller than the prediction mode. Also includes some cleanups
and refactoring.

Rebase.

1cc5739669 remove the vp9_default_mode_contexts_a
Given the way mode_context is updated, the benefit of an additional
default is not signficant.

12da793d00 removed redundant mode_context data structures
This commit removed a couple of redundant data structures in frame
coding contextsm, mode_context and mode_context_a, and changed to
use vp9_mode_contexts only. The switch of the context for different
frame type now relies on the switch of frame coding context between
lfc and lfc_a. This commit also removed a number of memcpy among
these redundant data structure.

a1f15814be Clamp decoded feature data
Not all segment feature data elements are full-range powers of two, so
there are values that can be encoded that are invalid. Add a new function
to clamp values to the maximum allowed.
