For coding block sizes <=16X16, if the block is determined to be skin,
then always allow for that block to be candidate for refresh. So if that
block happens to be on the boost segment(s), segment won't get reset to 0
and delta-q will be applied.
PSNR/SSIM metrics neutral (little/no change) on RTC clips.
Speed increase small/negligible (< 1%).
Some visual improvement on faces in a few RTC clips.

reduce the register count by 1 to avoid xmm6 and unnecessarily
penalizing the other users of the base macro

In 32-bit build with --enable-shared, there is a lot of
register pressure and register src_strideq is reused.
The code needs to use the stack based version of src_stride,
but this doesn't compile when used in an lea instruction.
This patch also fixes a related segmentation fault caused by the
implementation using src_strideq even though it has been
reused.
This patch also fixes the HBD subpel variance tests that fail
when compiled without disable-optimizations.
These failures were caused by local variables in the assembler
routines colliding with the caller's stack frame.

H/V intra mode was only enabled for bsize < 16x16,
enable it also for bsize=16x16.
Metrics are neutral with this change:
Overall very small gain (0.1%), small visual gain on some RTC clips.

For testing implemented a fixed pattern and delta, 1 pass,
fixed Q, low delay mode.
This has not in any way been tuned or optimized.

The one pass VBR mode selects a Q range based on a
moving average of recent Q values. This calculation
should have been excluding arf overlay frames as these
are usually coded at the highest allowed value. Their
inclusion skews the average and can cause it to drift
upwards even when the clip as a whole is undershooting.
As such it can undermine correct adaptation of the allowed
Q range especially for easy content.

The culprit is on the decode side xd->lossless[i] setup was in wrong
location where segment features are not yet decoded.
Also on the encoder side, transform mode was not set consistently
between when tx_mode is selected and how tx_mode is enforced in
tx size selection.

Keep track of frame indexes for the references, and

Improves speed by about ~15%, no noticeable loss in
compression performance.

Lower the threshold for splitting 32x32->16x16 based on average variance,
and add lower bound condition for this split to occur. This prevents
unneccassry splitting for areas with very low variance.

For non-rd variannce partition, speed >= 5:
Adjustments to reduce dragging artifcat of background area near
slow moving boundary.
-Decrease base threshold under low source noise conditions.
-Add condition to split 64x64/32x32 based on average variances
of lower level blocks.
PSNR/SSIM metrics go down ~0.7/0.9% on average on RTC set.
Visually helps to reduce dragging artifact on some rtc clips.

This commit makes the sub8x8 block rate-distortion optimization
scheme use precise motion compensated prediction to compute the rd
cost. It fixes a potential buffer overflow issue related to sub8x8
motion search on scaled reference frame.
