Removes all runtime initialization of global data. This commit is a
squashed version of the following series cherry-picked from master.
This is necessary because of a change that was merged to the tester
that depends on the scaler being moved to the RTCD framework, which
is a worthwhile thing to include in Eider anyway.

The ARNR filter uses MC to find the best match between the
ARF and other nearby frames in the filter-set. Since the
ARF is a member of the filter-set, MC in that case is
unnecesssary. This patch modifies the filter so it does
not apply MC in this case.

The ARNR filter uses a motion compensated temporal filter,
but the motion estimation implementation accounts for the
cost of the mv in its decision making process. The ARNR
filter uses a dummy cost table initialized to 0 as a way
to ignore the mv costs (which are irrelevant to the filter).
This CL modifies the ARNR filter implementation so that
the mv costing is ignored without the requirement for
dummy tables.

Race was introduced by https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/15563.
If loopfilter related config params were changed between frames, or
after a KEY frame, there could be a mismatch between encoder's and
decoder's recontructed image. In worst case, when frame buffers are
reallocated because of a size change, the loopfilter could
do an invalid data access (segmentation fault).
Fixes:
Sync with the loopfilter before applying any encoder changes in
vp8_change_config().
Moved the loopfilter synching to the top of
encode_frame_to_data_rate() so that it's done before any alteration of
the encoder.

RD costs were local to MACROBLOCK data and had to be copied all the
time to each thread's MACROBLOCK data. Tables moved to a common place
and only pointers are setup for each encoding thread.
vp8_cost_tokens() generates 'int' costs so changed all types to be
int (i.e. removed unsigned).
NOTE: Could do some more cleaning in vp8cx_init_mbrthread_data().

When producing an invisible ARF, the time stamp counters aren't
updated since the last time stamp is seen by the codec twice. The
prior code was trapping this case with refresh_alt_ref, but this isn't
correct for other uses of the ARF. Instead, use the show_frame flag.

This change added a motion search skipping mechanism similar
to what we did in second pass. For a macroblock that is very
similar to the macroblock at same location on last frame,
we can set its mv to be zero, and skip motion search. This
improves first-pass performance for slide shows and video
conferencing clips with a slight PSNR loss.

Produce the token partitions on-the-fly, while processing each MB.
Context is updated at the beginning of each frame based on the
previoud frame's counters. Optimally encoder outputs partitions in
separate buffers. For frame based output, partitions are concatenated
internally.
Limitations:
- enabled just in combination with realtime-only mode
- number of encoding threads has to be equal or less than the
number of token partitions. For this reason, by default the encoder
will do 8 token partitions.
- vpxenc supports partition output (-P) just in combination with
IVF output format (--ivf)
Performance:
- Realtime encoder can be up to 13% faster (ARM) depending on the number
of threads and bitrate settings. Constant gain over the 5-16 speed
range.
- Token buffer reduced from one frame to 8 MBs
Quality:
- quality is affected by the delayed context updates. This again
dependents on input material, speed and bitrate settings. For VC
style input the loss seen is up to 0.2dB. If error-resilient=2
mode is used than the effect of this change is negligible.
Example:
./configure --enable-realtime-only --enable-onthefly-bitpacking
./vpxenc --rt --end-usage=1 --fps=30000/1000 -w 640 -h 480
--target-bitrate=1000 --token-parts=3 --static-thresh=2000

When we encode slide-show clips, for the majority of the time,
only ZEROMV mode is checked, and all other modes are skipped.
This change delayed uv intra-mode evaluation until intra mode is
actually checked. This gave big performance gain for slide-show
video encoding (2nd pass gain: 18% to 28%). But, this change
doesn't help other types of videos.
Also, zbin_mode_boost is adjusted in mode-checking loop, which
causes bitstream mismatch before/after this change when --best
or --good with --cpu-used=0 are used.

When temporal layers is used (i.e., number_of_layers > 1),
we don't use the frame rate boost for setting the key
frame target size. The factor was forcing the target size to be
always at its minimum (2* per_frame_bandwidth) for low frame rates
(i.e., base layer frame rate).
Generally we should modify or remove this frame rate factor;
for now we turn if off for number_of_layers > 1.

In vp8_rd_pick_inter_mode(), if total of eobs is zero, rate needs
to be adjusted since there are no non-zero coefficients for
transmission. The uv intra eobs calculated in

overwritten by inter-mode eobs.

mode_info_context->mbmi.mb_skip_coeff has to always reflect the
existence or not of coeffs for a certain MB. The loopfilter needs this
info.
mb_skip_coeff is either set by the vp8_tokenize_mb or has to be set to
1 when the MB is skipped by mode selection. This has to be done
regardless of the mb_no_coeff_skip value.
prob_skip_false is needed just when mb_no_coeff_skip is 1. No need to
keep count of both skip_false and skip_true as they are complementary
(skip_true+skip_false = total_mbs)

Second shot at this...
Sync with loopfilter thread as late as possible, usually just at the
beginning of next frame encoding. This returns control to application
faster and allows a better multicore scaling.
When PSNR packets are generated the final filtered frame is needed
imediatly so we cannot delay the sync. Same has to be done when
internal frame is previewed.

In the variance calculations the difference is summed and later squared.
When the sum exceeds sqrt(2^31) the value is treated as a negative when
it is shifted which gives incorrect results.
To fix this we cast the result of the multiplication as unsigned.
The alternative fix is to shift sum down by 4 before multiplying.
However that will reduce precision.
For 16x16 blocks the maximum sum is 65280 and sqrt(2^31) is 46340 (and
change).
PPC change is untested.

Sometimes, a user doesn't have enough bandwidth to send high-resolution
(i.e. HD) video even though the camera catches HD video. This change
allowed users to skip highest-resolution encoding by setting that level's
target bit rate to 0.
To test it, modify the following line in vp8_multi_resolution_encoder.c.
unsigned int target_bitrate[NUM_ENCODERS]={1400, 500, 100};
To skip the highest-resolution level, change it to
unsigned int target_bitrate[NUM_ENCODERS]={0, 500, 100};
To skip the first and second highest resolution levels, change it to
unsigned int target_bitrate[NUM_ENCODERS]={0, 0, 100};
This change also fixed a small problem in mapping, which slightly helped
quality and performance.

This is a proof of concept RTCD implementation to replace the current
system of nested includes, prototypes, INVOKE macros, etc. Currently
only the decoder specific functions are implemented in the new system.
Additional functions will be added in subsequent commits.
Overview:
RTCD "functions" are implemented as either a global function pointer
or a macro (when only one eligible specialization available).
Functions which have RTCD specializations are listed using a simple
DSL identifying the function's base name, its prototype, and the
architecture extensions that specializations are available for.
Advantages over the old system:
- No INVOKE macros. A call to an RTCD function looks like an ordinary
function call.
- No need to pass vtables around.
- If there is only one eligible function to call, the function is
called directly, rather than indirecting through a function pointer.
- Supports the notion of "required" extensions, so in combination with
the above, on x86_64 if the best function available is sse2 or lower
it will be called directly, since all x86_64 platforms implement
sse2.
- Elides all references to functions which will never be called, which
could reduce binary size. For example if sse2 is required and there
are both mmx and sse2 implementations of a certain function, the
code will have no link time references to the mmx code.
- Significantly easier to add a new function, just one file to edit.
Disadvantages:
- Requires global writable data (though this is not a new requirement)
- 1 new generated source file.

Commit e06c242ba introduced a change to call vp8_find_near_mvs() only
once instead of once per reference frame by observing that the only
effect that the frame had was on the bias applied to the motion
vector. By keeping track of the sign_bias value, the mv to use could
be flip-flopped by multiplying its components by -1.
This behavior was subtley wrong in the case when clamping was applied
to the motion vectors found by vp8_find_near_mvs(). A motion vector
could be in-bounds with one sign bias, but out of bounds after
inverting the sign, or vice versa. The clamping must match that done
by the decoder.
This change modifies vp8_find_near_mvs() to remove the clamping from
that function. The vp8_pick_inter_mode() and vp8_rd_pick_inter_mode()
functions instead track the correctly clamped values for both bias
values, switching between them by simple assignment. The common
clamping and inversion code is in vp8_find_near_mvs_bias()
