In many tests in VP8, the denoiser is disabled. By adding this
conditional comilation macro, the unit test will not be included
when denoiser is not enabled.

Substantial restructuring of the way we estimate
the rate of decay in prediction quality and determine
the arf interval and amount of boost used.
Also other changes to support moving to a lower first pass
Q which exposes some new features and allows us to better
distinguish genuinely static blocks from low motion or noisy
blocks.
Net gains now visible on all the test sets with std-hd PSNR up
1.87%. There are still some bad outlier cases but most of these
are low motion or slide show type content where the metrics
are already high at any given rate. The best + case is up by
more than 10%.

1. This is to align with the ffmpeg implementation
2. Remove APIs for setting quantizers and scale-factors

This commit adds back sse2 or ssse3 optimized versio of a couple of
functions, fixes a ~10% performance regression.

The ARF frame should always be the same size as the
native resolution of the input frames.
It will be scaled to the required resolution at
encode time.

This commit makes the encoder to use non-zero mode threshold for
NEARESTMV modes. The runtime for test clips of speed 3 is reduced
by about 1%.
pedestrian 1080p 2000 kbps, 143239 ms -> 141989 ms
bus CIF 1000 kbps, 7835 ms -> 7749 ms
The compression performance change is about -0.02% for both derf
and stdhd.

If the partition block is skippable, which means no coefficients
for Y, U, and V planes, its skip flag is set to 1. No quality
change (verified by borg tests), and no noticeable speed change.

Libvpx was memseting every external frame buffer before decode. This
was to work around a valgrind issue in our C loop filter. Most of
the time this was not needed and we have noticed some significant
performance loss on some platforms. Now we require the application to
zero out the buffers if it is using external frame buffers.

This commit enforces ARF validation check for compound inter modes.
It avoids potential access to ARF in the encoding process if it
is not allowed.

The valid reference frame check in sub8x8 rate-distortion
optimization search has been included in the ref_frame_skip_mask
scheme. This commit removes the later further validation checks
that are not in effect.

This commit replaces the best_ref_index table fetch with the use
of best_mbmode in vp9_rd_pick_inter_mode_sub8x8.
