Increase the motion search range by 4x. Change MV_CLASS tree of the
entropy coding to allow two additional mv classes to cover the
extended motion vector limit. The codec determines the effective
motion search range conditioned on the actual frame dimension.
It provides coding gains:
stdhd 0.39%
yt 0.56%
hd 0.47%
Major coding performance gains are packed in several sequences with
intense motion activities, e.g., ped_1080p gains 7% at high bit-rates,
and on average 3%.
TODO: Need to further tune the rate control and motion search units.

This also changes the RD search to take account of the correct block
index when searching (this is required for ADST positioning to work
correctly in combination with tx_select).

Yaowu found this function had a compiling issue with MSVC because
of using _mm_storel_pi((__m64 *)(dest + 0 * stride), (__m128)p0).
To be safe, changed back to use integer store instruction.
Also, for some build, diff could not always be 16-byte aligned.
Changed that in the code.

This patch revamps the entropy coding of coefficients to code first
a non-zero count per coded block and correspondingly remove the EOB
token from the token set.
STATUS:
Main encode/decode code achieving encode/decode sync - done.
Forward and backward probability updates to the nzcs - done.
Rd costing updates for nzcs - done.
Note: The dynamic progrmaming apporach used in trellis quantization
is not exactly compatible with nzcs. A suboptimal approach has been
used instead where branch costs are updated to account for changes
in the nzcs.
TODO:
Training the default probs/counts for nzcs

Added a variant of the one shot maxQ flag
for two pass that forces a fixed Q for the
normal inter frames. Disabled by default.
Also small adjustment to the Bits per MB
estimation.

A 'superframe' is a group of frames that share the same PTS, but have a
defined decoding order. This commit adds the ability to append an index
to such a group of frames, allowing for random access to the constituent
frames. This could be useful for frame-level parallelism or partial
decoding in a multilayer scenario.
Decoding the stream serially without such an index should work as a
fallback, and VP9/TestSuperframeIndexIsOptional verifies that.

Split macroblock and superblock tokenization and detokenization
functions and coefficient-related data structs so that the bitstream
layout and related code of superblock coefficients looks less like it's
a hack to fit macroblocks in superblocks.
In addition, unify chroma transform size selection from luma transform
size (i.e. always use the same size, as long as it fits the predictor);
in practice, this means 32x32 and 64x64 superblocks using the 16x16 luma
transform will now use the 16x16 (instead of the 8x8) chroma transform,
and 64x64 superblocks using the 32x32 luma transform will now use the
32x32 (instead of the 16x16) chroma transform.
Lastly, add a trellis optimize function for 32x32 transform blocks.
HD gains about 0.3%, STDHD about 0.15% and derf about 0.1%. There's
a few negative points here and there that I might want to analyze
a little closer.

Fixed a couple of variable/function definitions, as well as header
handling to support 16K sequence coding at high bit-rates.
The width and height are each specified by two bytes in the header.
Use an extra byte to explicitly indicate the scaling factors in
both directions, each ranging from 0 to 15.
Tested coding up to 16400x16400 dimension.

Simplified idct32x32 calculation when there are only 10 or less
non-zero coefficients in 32x32 block. This helps the decoder
performance.

The ABOVESPREFMV experiment uses four pixels to the left of the
current block, which don't exist for the left-most column.

Removing redundant variables, using x *= y instead x = x * y, moving
variable declarations into inner blocks.

The width and height stored in the reference frames are padded out to
a multiple of 16. The Width and Height variables in common are the
displayed size, which may be smaller. The incorrect comparison was
causing scaling related code to be called when it shouldn't have
been. A notable case where this happens is 1080p, since 1088 != 1080.
