PSNR HVS is a human visual system weighted version of SNR that's
gained some popularity from academia and apparently better matches
MOS testing.
This code is borrowed from the Daala Project but uses our FDCT code.

Force split on 16x16 block (to 8x8) based on the minmax over the 8x8 sub-blocks.
Also increase variance threshold for 32x32, and add exit condiiton in choose_partition
(with very safe threshold) based on sad used to select reference frame.
Some visual improvement near moving boundaries.
Average gain in psnr/ssim: ~0.6%, some clips go up ~1 or 2%.
Encoding time increase (due to more 8x8 blocks) from ~1-4%, depending on clip.

The vbp thresholds are set seperately for boosted/non-boosted
superblocks according to their segment_id. This way we don't
have to force the boosted blocks to split to 32x32.
Speed 6 RTC set borg test result showed some quality gains.
Overall PSNR: +0.199%; Avg PSNR: +0.245%; SSIM: +0.802%.
No speed change was observed.

Frame buffers are now allocated dynamically on-demand.
Entries in the reference frame map, cm->ref_frame_map,
may now be set to -1 (INVALID_IDX) to indicate that
there is not a valid reference buffer in that "slot".
All slots in the reference frame map are now initialized
to the empty state (-1) and each buffer is initialized
to have a reference count of 0.

This is to avoid redo the same calculation repeatly, and also allow
easier adjustments for further experiments.
This commit shall have no effect on quality/compression.

Note: This feature is still in development.
Add an option for the encoder to decide the resolution
at which to encode each frame.
Each KF/GF/ARF goup is tested to see if it would be
better encoded at a lower resolution. At present, each
KF/GF/ARF is coded first at full-size and if the coded
size exceeds a threshold (twice target data rate) at
the maximum active Q then the entire group is encoded
at lower resolution.
This feature is enabled in vpxenc by setting:
--resize-allowed=1
In addition, if the vpxenc command line also specifies
valid frame dimensions using:
--resize-width=XXXX & --resize_height=YYYY
then *all* frames will be encoded at this resolution.

In frame parallel decode, libvpx decoder decodes several frames on all
cpus in parallel fashion. If not being flushed, it will only return frame
when all the cpus are busy. If getting flushed, it will return all the
frames in the decoder. Compare with current serial decode mode in which
libvpx decoder is idle between decode calls, libvpx decoder is busy
between decode calls.
Current frame parallel decode will only speed up the decoding for frame
parallel encoded videos. For non frame parallel encoded videos, frame
parallel decode is slower than serial decode due to lack of loopfilter
worker thread.
There are still some known issues that need to be addressed. For example:
decode frame parallel videos with segmentation enabled is not right sometimes.

1. Added row-based loopfilter in encoder;
2. Moved common multi-threaded loopfilter functions from decoder
to common;
3. Merged multi-threaded loopfilter code, and made encoder/
decoder call same function to reduce code duplication.
Encoder tests showed that 1% - 2% speedup was seen for good-quality
2-pass mode(at speed 3); 1% - 3% speedup using 2 threads and 4% - 6%
speedup using 4 threads were seen for real-time mode(at speed 7).

This commit adds encoder side control for vp9 to set color space info
in the output compressed bitstream.
It also amends the "vp9_encoder_params_get_to_decoder" test to verify
the correct color space information is passed from the encoder end to
decoder end.

When testing frame sse to choose a loop filter value and
when checking ambient error in kf Q selection, use 64 bit
values for accumulating the sse, to avoid risk of overflow
for large image formats.

Initial patch to remove get_zbin_mode_boost() and
cpi->zbin_mode_boost.
For now sets a dummy value of 0 for zbin extra pending
a further clean up patch.

The restructure moves the decision into the rd pick
modes loop and makes a decision based at the 16x16
block level instead of only the 64x64 level.
This gives finer granularity and better visual results
on the clips I have tested. Metrics results are worse
than the old AQ2 especially for PSNR and this mode
now falls between AQ0 and AQ1 in terms of visual
impact and metrics results.
Further tuning of this to follow.
It should be noted that if there are multiple iterations
of the recode loop the segment for a MB could change
in each loop if the previous loop causes a change in the
complexity / variance bin of the block. Also where a block
gets a delta Q this will alter the rd multiplier for this block
in subsequent recode iterations and frames where the
segmentation is applied.

Currently, VP9 supports column-tile encoding, which allows a frame
to be encoded in multiple column tiles independently. The number of
column tiles are set by encoder option "--tile-columns". This
provides a way to encode a frame in parallel.
Based on previous set of patches, this patch implemented the tile-
based multi-threaded encoder. Each thread processes one or more
tiles.
Usage:
For HD clips:
--tile-columns=2 --threads=1/2/3/4
While using 4 threads, tests showed that the encoder achieved
2.3X - 2.5X speedup at good-quality speed 3, and 2X speedup at
realtime speed 5.

Each tile's tok starting address is calculated before the encoding
process. These addresses are stored so that the same calculation
won't be done again in packing bit stream.

This patch modified struct VP9_COMP. Created a struct ThreadData
to include data that need to be copied for each thread. In
multiple thread case, one thread processes one tile. all threads
share one copy of VP9_COMP,
(refer to VP9_COMP *cpi in the code)
but each thread has its own copy of ThreadData,
(refer to ThreadData *td in the code).
Therefore, within the scope of encode_tiles(), both cpi and td
need to be passed as function parameters.
In single thread case, the FRAME_COUNTS pointer in ThreadData
points to "counts" in VP9_COMMON.

Several frame counters in encoder are updated at SB level. Combine
those counters and put them in a separate struct, which allows us
to allocate one copy for each thread.

Prepare for the introduction of frame-size change
logic into the recode loop.
Separated the speed dependent features into
separate static and dynamic parts, the latter being
those features that are dependent on the frame size.

0 means that golden boost is off, and uses average frame target rate,
a non-zero number means the percentage of boost over average frame
bitrate is given initially to golden frames in CBR mode.

The point at which frames are scaled to their
coded dimensions is moved into the re-code loop.
This is in preparation for a further patch that
will add logic into the re-code loop to reduce
the coded frame size if the encoder is struggling
to hit the target data rate at the native frame
size.
