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

Also set the flag to 1 when exit early choosing 64x64 block

Avoid many visual artifacts. Compression quality is improved by more

android.

When aq=3 mode is on and the gf_cbr_boost is set: make sure golden frame

Better performance on RTC set with gf_cbr_boost on,

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.

The function 'vp9_find_best_sub_pixel_tree_pruned_more' is modified
to return INT_MAX for handling invalid MV cases from UINT32_MAX.
yunqingwang:
patch 3: rebased on top of the tree.
patch 4: The return type of vp9_find_best_sub_pixel_tree* was changed
to uint32_t to fix ubsan warnings. Changing UINT_MAX back to INT_MAX
was not quite right. Patch 4 modified vp9_temporal_filter.c to accept
uint32_t.
(Note: Inconsistency exists in vp9_find_best_sub_pixel_tree*, which
will be fixed in a separate CL.)

When source frame is altref, we only do zero-mv mode, so we can skip

Add feature to copy partition from the last frame.
The copy is only done under certain conditions that SAD is below threshold.
Feature is currently disabled, until threshold is tuned.
Feature will be initially used for Speed 8 (ARM).
Under extreme case of always copying partition for speed 8:
Encode time is reduced by 5.4% on rtc_derf and 7.8% on rtc.
Overall PSNR reduced by 2.1 on rtc_derf and 0.968 on rtc.

Simplify address arithmetic on token_costs to reduce the number of generated
instructions that are used for address arithmetic inside routine
vp9_optimize_b. It also helps improve instruction scheduling depending on
compiler and optimization level.
Measured a 9.3% reduction in retired instructions and 5.3% reduction in
execution time for this routine with GCC v4.8.4 and optimization flags -O3,
and a reduction of up to 11.6% in execution time with other compilers.
No change in behavior.
