This patch allocated frame contexts outside VP9_COMMON. This allows
multiple threads to share the same copy of frame contexts, and
reduces the overhead. It also guarantees the correct update of
these contexts during bitstream packing. This patch doesn't change
encoding result.

mi_grid_* are arrays of pointer to pointer. They save the pointers that point
to the MIs in cm->mi. But they are unnecessary and complicated. The original
goal was to remove MODE_INFO_t copy. But with an extra MODE_INFO_t pointer
inside MODE_INFO_t, same goal could be achieved.
This commit totally removes the mi_grid_* structures. But there are still
many dummy MODE_INFO_t inside cm->mi which are a waste of memory. Next commit
will do on-demand MODE_INFO_t allocation in order to save these memories.

This commit makes the encoder to use non-zero mode threshold for
NEARESTMV modes. The runtime for test clips of speed 3 is reduced
by about 1%.
pedestrian 1080p 2000 kbps, 143239 ms -> 141989 ms
bus CIF 1000 kbps, 7835 ms -> 7749 ms
The compression performance change is about -0.02% for both derf
and stdhd.

When a reference frame type is not in the frame buffer, the mode
search threshold will be set to INT_MAX, so as to effectively
turn off the mode entries in the rate-distortion optimization loop
that involves this reference frame type. This operation is now
integrated in the ref_frame_skip_mask scheme. This commit hence
removes the redundant mode search threshold setting.

This commit turns on adaptive motion search for ARF coding, in
addition to other normal inter frame coding. It improves the
average compression efficiency:
stdhd 0.1%
derf 0.04%
For the test sequences, the speed 3 runtime is reduced:
pedestrian 1080p 2000 kbps, 149932 ms -> 144580 ms, (3.3% speed-up)
bus CIF 1000 kbps, 8050 ms -> 7895 ms, (1.9%)
highway CIF 100 bkps, 45033 ms -> 44078 ms, (2.2%)

We had a very complicated way to initialize cpi->pass from
cfg->g_pass:
switch (cfg->g_pass) {
case VPX_RC_ONE_PASS:
oxcf->mode = ONE_PASS_GOOD;
break;
case VPX_RC_FIRST_PASS:
oxcf->mode = TWO_PASS_FIRST;
break;
case VPX_RC_LAST_PASS:
oxcf->mode = TWO_PASS_SECOND_BEST;
break;
}
cpi->pass = get_pass(oxcf->mode).
Now pass is moved to VP9EncoderConfig and initialization is simple:
switch (cfg->g_pass) {
case VPX_RC_ONE_PASS:
oxcf->pass = 0;
break;
case VPX_RC_FIRST_PASS:
oxcf->pass = 1;
break;
case VPX_RC_LAST_PASS:
oxcf->pass = 2;
break;
}

2 pass only change to calculation of rd mult based on Q.
Make a small adjustment based on frame type and also
replace adjustment based on iifactor with an one based
on the ambient GF/ARF boost level.
Also fix multi arf bug / issue.
Overall these change give an slight improvement in ssim
but hurt psnr a little.

vp9_rdopt is for making rd optimal mode decisions. vp9_rd is for all
other rd related routines. Anything used outside of making an rd optimal
decision belongs in rd.
