1. Rebased the patch. Incorporated recent first pass changes.
2. Turned on the first pass unit test.

Increase the qp-delta, mainly for low resolutions,
excluding case of very low bitrates.
avgPSNR/SSSIM gain of ~3-5% on rtc_derf set.
Small change on rtc set.
Change-Id: Ice03d04bd0340404d1957666ef154fd64fed0606
Affecting only speed 8.
Speed tests on Nexus 6 show 4% faster for QVGA and 2.4% faster for VGA.
Little/negligible quality regression observed on both rtc and rtc_derf sets.

This patch added the missing initialization in temporal filter.
Borg test BDRate results:
PSNR: -0.019%(lowres); -0.013%(hdres);
SSIM: -0.001%(lowres); -0.010%(hdres).
Other q values gave comparable but no better results.

Only for speed >= 7, and affects skipping of intra modes.
Threshold is set low for now, needs to be tuned.
Small/no difference in metrics on rtc clips.

For short_circuit set to level 1, skip newmv for 64x64 blocks if the
low temporal variance flag is set. Also modify threshold for 64x64 split
in variance partitioning.
Overall speed-up on noisy clips of 2-4%.
Only affect speed >= 7.

Avoid quality loss when copying partition of superblock with large motions.
Maximum consecutively copied frames can be set (currently 5).
Change-Id: I11c30575514f02194c0f001444cf4021609e5049
Also set the flag to 1 when exit early choosing 64x64 block
such that skipping new mv for golden works in these scenerios.
Change the size of prev_segment_id to the number of superblocks
to save memory.
Borg test shows quality regression of 0.012% on average PSNR
and 0.035% on SSIM.
Change-Id: I5014224c8617d439d35c66ece3fed9ae30b31d23
If enabled will compute source_sad for every superblock on every frame,
prior to encoding. Off by default, only on for speed=8 when
copy_partition is set.
Change-Id: Iab7903180a23dad369135e8234b7f896f20e1231
Avoid many visual artifacts. Compression quality is improved by more
than 1%. Encode speed is about 4% for QVGA and 6% for VGA faster on
android.
Change-Id: I4dd0a81429ddf7efdef1e80a191da5fb8de8e8af
For speed 8, it speeds up the encoding on android by 6% for QVGA and
7.4% for VGA with the new threshold. Overall PSNR is improved by 0.667
for rtc.
Change-Id: I4a644560b32c0b5b4e9f49ffb953d000413a3732
If enabled denoiser will only denoise the top spatial layer for now.
Added unittest for SVC with denoising.

When aq=3 mode is on and the gf_cbr_boost is set: make sure golden frame
is always refreshed, and don't incorporate segement cost in qp setting
on the boosted golden frame.
Better performance on RTC set with gf_cbr_boost on,
for example with gf_cbr_boost=50, gains from ~0.5-3%.
Change-Id: Ie811f5e4d444ff3320bd6e2c1745b2c4c09a8460
Quality improved by 1.866 and 0.386 for two noisy clips (dark720p and
marcooffice720p), respectively.
Change-Id: Ib33a7672ae9ca53da156208f7cd13f07b5543e44
Avoid the qp-clamping on gf/alt frame if gf_cbr_boost_pct is set.
Change only affect CBR mode when gf_cbr_boost_pct is set.
Change-Id: I0655ed4f2b047c8ed1ed33a070c17960ad776704
Increase the boost threshold below which GOLDEN update will use same
rate correction factor as INTER_NORMAL.
Improves performance when gf_cbr_boost_pct is set (between 0 and 100)
in CBR mode.
Change-Id: I9f54cc18664786a100b13a416b7137ae03bd0cab
Set short_circuit_low_temp_var to 3 for speed 8 for all res.
No strong visual difference on all clips.

Constraints on encoder config:
-target_bandwidth is no larger than 80% of level bitrate limit
-target_bandwidth * (1 + max_over_shoot_pct) is no larger than
88% of level bitrate limit
-min_gf_interval is no smaller than level limit
-tile_columns is no larger than level limit
Constraints on rate control:
-current frame size plus previous three frames' size is no larger
than the CPB level limit
-current frame size is no larger than 50%/40%/20% of the CPB
level limit if it's a key/alt-ref/other frame.

The source sad could be used to copy the partition without going into
choose_partitioning function to speed up vp9 encoding. Computing source
sad takes little time. Speed test on Android and Linux shows little
encoding time gain (less than 1.4%).
Turned off for now since partition copy is turned off.
Change-Id: I61c9d5b8f22329760cb29a4ee30a7f9c232ce8d3
vp9: Set short circuit to level 3 for VGA for speed 8. Also change the
threshold_32x32 to 5/8*thresholds[1] to improve quality regression
caused to VGA clips.
