Mode selection for SBs could enter an infinite loop because
the interpolation filter mode index was not being reset
correctly.

This experimental change reorders the search so
that all possible references that match the target
reference frame are tested first and these in order
of distance from the current block. These will usually
be the highest scoring candidates.
If we do not find enough good candidates this way
we try non matching cases. These will usually be lower
scoring candidates.
The change in order together with breakouts when
we have found enough candidates should reduce
the computational cost and especially reduce the number
of sort operations.
Quality Results:
Std Hd +0.228%, Hd +0.074%, YT +0.046%, derf +0.137%
This effect is probably due to the fact that more distant
weak candidates are now less likely to get "promoted" over
near candidates even if they are repeated.

Use the proper seg/mode/ref filter offsets when selecting the
frame loop filter level for fast mode (pick_filter_level_fast).

Old Scheme:
When SWITCHABLE filter selection is enabled the encoder
evaluates the use of each interpolation filter type and
selects the best one to use at the MB level. A frame-
level flag can be set to force the use of a particular
filter type for all MBs in a frame if it is more efficient
to encode that way. The logic here involved a Q dependent
threshold that assumed that the second 8-tap filter was
a high-pass filter. However, this requires a trip around
the recode loop. If the frame-level flag indicates use
of a particular filter, the other filters are not
evaluated in the pick_mode loop.
New Scheme:
Each filter type is evaluated at the MB level and a record
of the best filter is kept, irrespective of what filter
is signaled at the frame-level. Once all MBs have been
encoded, a decision is made as to what frame-level mode
to set for the *next* frame. If one filter is used by 80%
or more of the MBs, then this filter is forced since it
is assumed that this will be more efficient if the
next frame has similar characteristics. i.e. there is a
one-frame lag between measuring the filter selection and
setting the frame-level mode to use.

Read mode before calling vp9_find_best_ref_mvs(). If the mode is
ZEROMV, the best ref_mvs are not needed. Then, we can skip calling
vp9_find_best_ref_mvs().

The 2-D inverse transform X = M1*Z*Transposed_M2 was calculated
in 2 steps from left to right:
1. Vertical transform: Y = M1*Z
2. Horizontal transform: X= Y*Transposed_M2
In SIMD, a transpose is needed in vertical transform.
Here, switched the calculation order to do it from right to left.
In this way, we could eliminate that transpose by writing the
intermediate results out to their transposed positions.

Adds an experiment to derive the previous context of a coefficient
not just from the previous coefficient in the scan order but from a
combination of several neighboring coefficients previously encountered
in scan order. A precomputed table of neighbors for each location
for each scan type and block size is used. Currently 5 neighbors are
used.
Results are about 0.2% positive using a strategy where the max coef
magnitude from the 5 neigbors is used to derive the context.

Remove an extra level of escaping around the $@ variable to get valid output.
Prior to this change, modifying header files did not trigger a rebuild of

This patch changes the token packing to call the bool encoder API rather
than inlining it into the token packing function, and similarly removes
a special get_signed case from the detokenizer. This allows easier
experimentation with changing the bool coder as a whole.

For coefficients, use int16_t (instead of short); for pixel values in
16-bit intermediates, use uint16_t (instead of unsigned short); for all
others, use uint8_t (instead of unsigned char).

The MAX_PSNR was used to assign a "psnr" number when the mse is close
to zero. The direct assignment is used to prevent divide by zero in
computation. Changing it from 60 to 100 to be consistent against what
is being done in VP9

In some cases intra modes in inter frames give
an over smoothed appearance. Especially with
noisy but flat content.
Also in some cases there were problems with key
frame sizing again with very flat but noisy content.
These are temporary changes to help alleviate the
visual problems but will almost certainly hurt metric
results especially at the very low data rate end.
