Added structures to support independent rd thresholds
for different block sizes (and set experimental block
size correction factors).
Added structure to to allow dynamic adaptation of thresholds
per mode and per block size basis depending on how often
the mode/block size combination is seen (currently fixed factor).
Removed some unused variables.
TODO
- Adaptation of thresholds based on how often each mode chosen.
- The baseline mode values could also be adjusted based on
the block size (e.g. for a particular intra mode use a low threshold
for 4x4 prediction blocks but a relatively high value for 64x64.

Adds backward adaptation and differential forward updates of switchable
interpolation filter probabilities. Also adds some cosmetic cleanups
and minor fixes on mv_ref probabilities.
derfraw300: +0.353% (with most coming from switchable interp changes)

Fixes an issue with reducing branch cts in the encoder causing
a drop in performance. The bug was introduced in a previous
clean up patch.
Test: Went back to the offending patch, applied this same fix
to it, and checked that results are identical to the parent
of that patch.

This commit enables iterative motion search for 4x4/4x8/8x4 block
size compound inter-inter prediction.
WIP: borg run testing
Change-Id: I2b318db4a03cdca5a8002b3fa6c0fa89b129288b
1. remove prediction mode conversion
2. unified bmode, same for key and non-key frame
3. set I4X4_PRED count for pdf to 0, as I4X4_PRED is no longer
coded ever. It is determined by ref_frame and block partition
Change-Id: If5b282957c24339b241acdb9f2afef85658fe47d
Also do per-partition motion vector referencing in <sb8x8 partitions,
and adjust mvref finding for sub8x8 partitions.

Cleans up the experiment. Actually uses reduced counts for backward
updates, and reduced number of probabilities in the context.
No change in bitstream when the experiment is on.
Between expt on and off:
derfraw300 is down only -0.062% (which is better than when expts
were run previously).

This is a mostly-working implementation of an extra channel in the
bitstream. Configure with --enable-alpha to test. Notable TODOs:
- Add extra channel to all mismatch tests, PSNR, SSIM, etc
- Configurable subsampling
- Variable number of planes (currently always uses all 4)
- Loop filtering
- Per-plane lossless quantizer
- ARNR support
This implementation just uses the same contents as the Y channel
for the A channel, due to lack of content and general pain in
playing back 4 channel content. A later patch will use the actual
alpha channel passed in from outside the codec.

This patch creates a new inter mode contest that avoids
a dependence on the reconstructed motion vectors from
neighboring blocks. This was a change requested by
a hardware vendor to improve decode performance.
As part of this change I have also made some modifications
to stats output code (under a flag) to allow accumulation of
inter mode context flags over multiple clips
Some further changes will be required to accommodate the
deprecation of the split mv mode over the next few days.
Performance as stands is around -0.25% on derf and
std-hd but up on the YT and YT-HD sets. With further tuning
or some adjustment to the context criteria it should be
possible to make this change broadly neutral.

There is only one instance of these structures, no need for them
to be allocated separately on the heap.

Work-in-progress, not yet ready for review. TODO items:
- bitstream writing (encoder) and reading (decoder)
- decoder reconstruction

This commit enables selecting probability models for recursive block
partition information syntax, depending on its above/left partition
information, as well as the current block size. These conditional
probability models are reasonably stationary and consistent across
frames, hence the backward adaptive approach is used to maintain and
update the contextual models.
It achieves coding performance gains (on top of enabling rectangular
block sizes):
derf: 0.242%
yt: 0.391%
hd: 0.376%
stdhd: 0.645%

Adds an experiment that codes an end-of-orientation symbol
for every eligible zero encountered in scan order.
This cleans out various other sub-experiments that were part
of the origiinal patch, which will be later included if found
useful.
Results are slightly positive on all sets (0.1 - 0.2% range).

Enable recursive partition information coding from SB64X64 down to
MB16X16. The bit-stream syntax is now supporting rectangular block
sizes. It starts from SB64X64 and recursively describes the partition
type of the current block. If the partition type is PARTITION_NONE,
the block is coded as a single unit; if it is PARTITION_HORZ or
PARTITION_VERT, the block is segmented into two independently coded
rectangular units, with no further partition needed; otherwise, the
block is segmented into 4 square blocks. i.e., PARTITION_SPLIT case,
each can be potentially further partitioned.
Forward adaptive probability modeling is used for the partition
information coding, conditioned on the current block size.
