Flipping arf on and off too often is hurting some clips.
This change makes no difference for 50-75% of our test
clips but helps some by a big margin. (eg. std-hd crew
by 6% and one of the YT and YT-hd clips by 14%)
Average improvements for 2 pass, speed 2 (psnr,ssim)
are as follows:-
derf 0.165%, 0.210%
yt 1.210%, 1.464%
yt-hd 1.189%, 1.471%
std-hd 1.031%, 0.886%

Two convolve functions were optimized for AVX2:
1. vp9_filter_block1d16_h8
2. vp9_filter_block1d16_v8
vp9_filter_block1d16_v8 was optimized for AVX2 by reducing the number of
loop strides by half, two strides were processed in parallel.
vp9_filter_block1d16_v8 was also optimized in the same way also some of the
loads were being done outside of the loop and by that preventing redundant
loads.
This Optimization gives 43% function level gain and 1.3% user level gain.
Now can be compiled in Windows

This function initializes the predictor buffer pointers and
calculates reference motion vectors. It is only needed in the settings
of inter frame coding. Hence removing it from the key frame coding
branch in rtc_use_partition.

This function is deprecated after the re-design of partition search
that runs big block size, then four-way split, followed by
rectangular block sizes. This commit removes the related functions.

The function rd_pick_reference_frame can be deprecated. Its use was

Removes certain cases of feedback of active_worst_quality,
and removes it from the RATE_CONTROL structure. Now active
worst quality is expected to be computed locally in the
q picking function during the encode.
Making temporal filter strength depend on avg_frame_qindex
rather than on active_worst_quality actually improves
performance esp. for yt.
derf: +0.038%
yt: +0.359%

In real time encoding, we enable encode_breakout to make encoding
fast. A speed feature "use_encode_breakout" is defined to set
encode_breakout thresholds for different speeds.
However, currently, static_thresh is an encoder option. The encode_
breakout can be turned off if user sets static_thresh=0 specifically.
The rtc set borg test result: (need to set --static_thresh=1)
speed -5, psnr loss -3.543%;
speed -4, psnr loss -2.358%;
speed -3, psnr loss -0.771%.
Encoding speed test:
speed -5, 11% - 60% speedup;
speed -4, 5.5% - 28% speedup;
speed -3, 0.8% - 7% speedup.

Aq 1 only updates segment map on kf and arf and
only uses 3 segments. With these settings AQ1 is
+ for most clips in SSIM but negative in psnr.
However, the penalty in PSNR is much less than
previously.
Old version aq1 average results for std hd
-20.899% psnr, -5.809% SSIM
New version aq1 for std hd
-3.57% psnr, +1.23% SSIM
Aq2 Now uses only 2 segments and rd.
This mode is still slightly negative for most clips on
psnr and SSIM but seems to have a much bigger visual
impact on several problem clips than aq mode 1.
Old results for std hd:
-2.578% psnr, -1.151% SSIM
New results for std hd:
-1.561% psnr, -0.85% SSIM

This CL changes libvpx to call a function when a frame buffer
is needed for decode. Libvpx will call a release callback when
no other frames reference the frame buffer. This CL adds a
default implementation of the frame buffer callbacks. Currently
only VP9 is supported. A future CL will add support for
applications to supply their own frame buffer callbacks.

Function encode_rtc_frame_internal() and encode_frame_internal() only
differed by a couple of speed features, this commit relocation those
difference into the setup of speed features and merged two functions
into one to remove duplication.
It also fixed a subtle bug super_fast_rtc was used before it was
initialized.

Fixes some of the parameters for 1-pass non-cbr mode.
Also includes some cleanups, inlcuding refactoring of the
recode_loop options.
Results on derfraw300 improve by about 5-6%, so that the one-pass
mode is now 13% below the 2-pass mode in speed 0.

This patch adds a buffer-based rate control for temporal layers,
under CBR mode.
Added vpx_temporal_scalable_patters.c encoder for testing temporal
layers, for both vp9 and vp8 (replaces the old vp8_scalable_patterns).
Updated datarate unittest with tests for temporal layer rate-targeting.

Inlcudes a number cleanups:
1. Moves the one-pass pre-encode parameter setting functions
to vp9_ratectrl.c
2. Deprecates per_frame_bandwidth in RATE_CONTROL structure
3. Removes target_bandwidth in cpi structure since it is not used.
4. Various renaming of functions
There is no bit-stream change in 2-pass, one-pass cbr and one-pass
vbr modes.

Fixes rate control partially in one-pass non-cbr case to achieve a
bitrate close to the one desired. Previous version was way off at
the high bitrate end.

0 encoding, down from 35%.
