Changes to mode selection for 1 pass SVC mode:
use base layer motion vector, changes to intra-prediction.

This is a pure-refactor in preparation to potentially raise the bit-cost
resolution.
Verified at good speed 0 and rt speed -6.

More aggresive on avoiding denoising on skin.
May supplement this later by adding condtion onn consec_zeromv.

Different quality levels are used for different regions in
the frame depending on how far they are vertically from the
center. Specifically, three segments are used based on the
mi_row index with respect number to the number of mi_rows in
the frame.

This commit enables encoder to avoid 8x4 and 4x8 partitions for
scaled reference frames when libvpx is configured and built with
--enable-better-hw-compatibility

Move the logic for forcing zero_mode after the
(ref_frame & flag_list) check.
This was causing an memory leak under msan:

Add function to compute skin map for a given block, as its
used in several places (cyclic refresh, noise estimation, and denoising).

Set initial values for these parameters in the vp9_init_layer_context().
This also fixes an issue in the svc-bypass mode when frame flags are
passed via the vpx_codec_encode().

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.

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.

Keep track of frame indexes for the references, and
constrain inter mode search for reference with same
temporal alignment.
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.

This commit enables the new temporal filter system for VP9. For
