Corrected the initial Q range limits for the recode loop
to reflect the current allowed range for the frame.
In experimental work on constrained quality this bug was
causing unnecessary recodes.

This patch adds a weighting factor on RDMULT for UV blocks. The change
has an overall gain about 0.5% based on ssim, between 0.1 and 0.2% by
psnr numbers.

Deallocating the buffers before re-allocating them.
The fix passed James Berry's test program for memory
leak check.

Moved the code from the segmentation loop into a function
which is now called for each segment. This will allow us
to change the segment order checking more easily.

When auto_golden wasn't set it forced all frames to be a golden
frame. Now the manual configured frequency is adhered to.

The inter_minq table controls the range of quantizers available
for a particular frame in two pass relative to a max Q value.
The changes reduces the range somewhat. The effect of this
was a small increase (0.3% average) in psnr for the test set
but it should also help encode speed somewhat for higher
quality modes as it will reduce the number of iterations in the
recode loop.
The change damps the range of quantizers available locally
within a section of a clip and should therefore help keep quality
more uniform. If there is systematic overshoot or undershoot the
range can shift gradually to accommodate. However, there is
some increased risk of overshoot or undershoot against the target
bit rate in VBR mode and this risk will be more pronounced for short
clips.

Add vp8_mv_pred() to better predict starting MV for NEWMV
mode in vp8_rd_pick_inter_mode(). Set different search
ranges according to MV prediction accuracy, which improves
encoder performance without hurting the quality. Also,
as Yaowu suggested, using diamond search result as full
search starting point and therefore adjusting(reducing)
full search range helps the performance.

On a keyframe alt ref and golden are refreshed. The flag was
not being set and so on the frame after a keyframe, motion
search would occur on the alt ref frame. This is not necessary
because the alt ref frame identical to the last frame in this
scenario.
Handle corner case where a forward alt-ref frame is put
directly after a keyframe.

remove warning comment in vpxenc.c: in case of 1x1 picture,
detect_bytes will be equal to '3' and we'll fall back to
RAW_TYPE.
fix read_frame() by tracking the pre-read buffer length
in the struct detect

The baseline bits per MB prediction tables have been
re calibrated based on the assumption that bits per mb
is inversely proportional to the quantizer level.
