As suggested by Paul, this commit separate the subpel refmv selection
into a separate experiment. It also changed a couple variable names
to better reflect the nature of the variables.

Previously, in evaluating reference motion vectors, MVs are always
rounded to integer pixel position and SADs are calculated. This
commit takes into account the subpixel portion of the mvs, and uses
bilinear interpolation to produce reference pixel values in subpixel
postions. In addition, SSE is used in place of SAD. Pixels used are
16x2 above and 2x16 to the left.
This commmit intends to test the potential of this line of work in
term of compression improvement, obviously, the change would increase
decoder complexity significantly.

Coding and costing of mv reference signal.
Issues in updating MV ref with COMPANDED_MVREF_THRESH
to be resolved. Ideally the MV precision should be defined based
on absolute MV magnitude not as now the MV ref magnitude.
Update to mv counts moved into bitstream.c because otherwise
if the motion reference is changed at the last minute the encoder
and decoder get out of step in terms of the counts used to update
entropy probs.
Code working on a few test clips but no results yet re benefit vs
signaling cost and no tuning of red loop to test lower cost alternatives
based on the available reference values.
Patch 3. Added check to make sure we don't pick a reference
that would give rise to an uncodeable / out of range residual.
Patch 6-7: Attempt to rebase. OK to submit but best to leave flag off for now.
Patch 9. Remove print no longer needed.

Refactor per-transform copy & paste into a common function
update_coef_probs_common() and read_coef_probs_common(). The dry-run and
bit-writing loops in the encoder are still obvious candidates to be made
common, but they start to diverge a bit in the next commit, so are left
as-is for now.

There is a macro DEFAULT_INTERP_FILTER defined in encoder/onyx_if.c that
is set as EIGHTTAP for now - so SWITCHABLE is not really used. Ideally,
this should be SWITCHABLE but that would make the encoder quite a bit slower.
We will change the default filter to SWITCHABLE once we find a faster way to
search for switchable filters.

* changes:
Fix another typo in 4x4-transform-for-i8x8-intra-pred coeff contexts.
8x8 transform support in splitmv.
Use SPLITMV_PARTITIONING instead of a plain integer type.
For splitmv, where partitioning is 8x16, 16x8 or 8x8, this patch
uses the 8x8 transform (instead of the 4x4) if txfm_mode is
ALLOW_8X8 or ALLOW_16X16. For TX_MODE_SELECT, splitmv can indicate
which of the 2 transform sizes (4x4 or 8x8) it wants to use.
Gains (with hybridtx4x4/8x8/16x16 and tx_select experiments
enabled) on derf: +0.9%, HD: +0.4%, STD/HD: +0.8% (SSIM or overall
PSNR, both metrics show similar improvements).

This can be used to distinguish between 16x8, 8x16, 8x8 and 4x4

First sse2 version of vp8_mbloop_filter_vertical_edge(). For now,

Separates the logic on transform type selection previously spread out
over a number of files into a separate function. Currently the tx_type
field in b_mode_info is not used, but still left in there to eventually
use for signaling the transform type in the bitstream.
Also, now for tx_type = DCT_DCT, the regular integer DCT is used, as
opposed to the floating point DCT used in conjuction with hybrid
transform.
Results change somewhat due to the transform change, but are within
reasonable limits. The hd/std-hd sets are slightly up, while derf/yt
are slightly down.

Packs the bitstream with each mb's residual following its mode/mv
information.
TODO: There are still a few fields that should be packed into partition
0 but are included in partition 1, due to them being serialized from
write_kfmodes/pack_inter_mode_mvs, which execute after the first
partition is finalized. These need to be separated out into a separate
function, similar to mb_mode_mv_init() in decodemv.c.

Rather than decoding all modes/mvs separately, decode them per MB. This
forces the mode which was already used form the CONFIG_NEWBESTREFMV and

This way a caller doesn't need to implement the logic for which (and how
many) tokens to write out to stuff one macroblock worth of EOBs. Make
the actual function implementations static, since they are now only used
in tokenize.c; also do some minor stylistic changes so it follows the
style guide a little more closely; use PLANE_TYPE where appropriate,
remove old (stale) frame_type function arguments; hardcode plane type
where only a single one is possible (2nd order DC or U/V EOB stuffing);
support stuffing 8x8/4x4 transform EOBs with no 2nd order DC.
Change-Id: Ia448e251d19a4e3182eddeb9edd034bd7dc16fa3
Change the macros PLANE_TYPE_{Y_NO_DC,Y2,UV,Y_WITH_DC} to a typed enum,
and use this typed enum consistently across all places where relevant.
In places where the type is implied (e.g. in functions that only handle
second order planes or chroma planes), remove it as a function argument
and instead hardcode the proper enum in the code directly.

Merge code blocks for different transform sizes; use MACROBLOCKD as a

Also make some minor stylistic changes to bring the code closer to
the style guide. Remove distinction between inter and intra transform
functions, since both do exactly the same thing except for the check
against SPLITMV for the second-order transform. Remove some commented
out debug code. Remove 8x8/16x16 transform code in encode_inter16x16y(),
since the first-pass only uses 4x4 anyway.

If a reference frame is forced because of low dissimilarity, then
shut off the search of intra modes. This change has mixed results. On
one clip (QVGA), it hurt quality by ~1.5% with negligible speed impact.
On another (VGA) it had negligible affect on quality, but a ~0.2% speed
impact.

Rather than overloading the parent_ref_frame value to shut off the

1. Algorithm modification:
Instead of having same filter threshold for a whole frame, now we
allow the thresholds to be adjusted for each macroblock. In current
implementation, to avoid excessive blur on background as reported
in issue480(http://code.google.com/p/webm/issues/detail?id=480), we
reduce the thresholds for skipped macroblocks.
2. SSE2 optimization:
As started in issue479(http://code.google.com/p/webm/issues/detail?id=479),
the filter calculation was adjusted for better performance. The c
code was also modified accordingly. This made the deblock filter
2x faster, and the decoder was 1.2x faster overall.
Next, the demacroblock filter will be modified similarly.

In some situations, believed to be an interaction between temporal
scalability and dropped frames, the references available to an
encoder may not be the same references available to its parent.
Previously, the code tried to force the reference frame chosen by
the parent to be used on this frame, even if it was disabled. This
was preventing the pick mode loop from running even once, which led
to a crash.
Attempts to reproduce this bug locally were unsuccessful, so it is
still undetermined what the underlying cause of this issue is. In
the specific case that was failing, the application did not set
any flags which influenced the reference selection on that frame.
ref_frame_flags indicated that the golden frame was disabled,
believed to be because the last frame updated the last and golden
frames, so golden was shut off by default. It's not clear why this
wouldn't have also been true in the lower res encoder, ie, why the
lower res encoder decided to use and/or was allowed to use the
golden frame. We weren't able to debug into the non-crashing
lower res encoder as the crash couldn't be reproduced locally.

This commit fixes unsafe simd / floating point interactions arising
from the current hybrid and 16x16 transform implementation.
These led to a raft of bugs and issues when the project was
built using VS2008 for Win32 though they did not show up with
the unix builds.
Gerrit makes a meal out of presenting the fix but all I have actually
done is indent the body of each function that uses floating point by
one level and bracket with emms instructions using the function
vp8_clear_system_state(). See below.
function () {
vp8_clear_system_state();
{
... function body
}
vp8_clear_system_state();
}
This is almost certainly over the top in terms of number of emms
instructions but is a temporary measure pending implementation of
integer variants of each function to replace the floating point.
Limited testing suggests that this fixes the problems that arose for
Win32 VS2008 when the hybrid or 16x16 transforms were enabled.

If a parent mb is available but is intra coded, then parent_ref_mv is
invalid. Check that the parent is inter coded before trying to access
the parent_ref_mv. Previously the parent_ref_mv was being read from

other undefined behavior.
