Move the notion of 0 bitrate implying skip deeper into the codec,
rather than doing it at the multi-encoder API level. This preserves
v1.0.0 ABI compatibility, rather than forcing a bump to v2.0.0 over a
minor change. Also, this allows the case where the application can
selectively enable and disable the larger resolution(s) without having
to reinitialize the codec instace (for instance, if no target is
receiving the full resolution stream).
It's not clear how deep to push this check. It may be valuable to
allow the framerate adaptation code to run, for example. Currently put
the check as early as possible for simplicity, should reevaluate this
as this feature gains real use.

These are warnings in most builds, but show up as compile errors on
some platforms when these headers are included from C++ code.

The ARNR filter uses MC to find the best match between the
ARF and other nearby frames in the filter-set. Since the
ARF is a member of the filter-set, MC in that case is
unnecesssary. This patch modifies the filter so it does
not apply MC in this case.

The ARNR filter uses a motion compensated temporal filter,
but the motion estimation implementation accounts for the
cost of the mv in its decision making process. The ARNR
filter uses a dummy cost table initialized to 0 as a way
to ignore the mv costs (which are irrelevant to the filter).
This CL modifies the ARNR filter implementation so that
the mv costing is ignored without the requirement for
dummy tables.

The backup MODE_INFO buffer used in the error concealment was
allocated in the codec common parts allocation even though this is a
decoder only resource. Moved the allocation to the decoder side.
No need to update_mode_info_border as mode_info buffers are zero
allocated.
This fixes also a potential memory leak as the EC overlaps buffer was not
properly released before reallocation after a frame size change.

Increment the last_row_mb_col counter by nsync after last MB of row is
ready. This way we dont need to check for last MB of row when
synching.
Set last MB of row ready just after row extension is done, This avoids
o potential race condition whit the processing of last MB of next row.

RD costs were local to MACROBLOCK data and had to be copied all the
time to each thread's MACROBLOCK data. Tables moved to a common place
and only pointers are setup for each encoding thread.
vp8_cost_tokens() generates 'int' costs so changed all types to be
int (i.e. removed unsigned).
NOTE: Could do some more cleaning in vp8cx_init_mbrthread_data().

The block pointers and offset do not need to be calculated for every
frame. Block internal predictors can be update once when decoder is
allocated. Destination and previous buffer offsets have to be updated
just when frame size is changing.

Key frame macrobock and block mode probabilities are constant.
Remove the allocation of tables for each codec instance and use

This patch includes:
1. fixes to disable block based termporal mixing when motion
is detected (because this version of mfqe only handles zero motion).
2. The criterion used for determining whether to mix or
not are changed to use squared differences rather than
absolute differences.
3. Additional checks on color mismatch and excessive block
flatness added. If the block as decoded has very low activity
it is unlikely to yield benefits for mixing.
Change-Id: I07331e5ab5ba64844c56e84b1a4b7de823eac6cb
In cases where you have a flat background occluded by a moving object
of similar luminosity in the foreground, it was likely that the
foreground blocks would persist for a few frames after the background
is uncovered. This is particularly noticable when the object has a
different color than the background, so add the chroma planes in as an
additional check.
In addition, for block sizes of 8 and 16, the luma threshold is
applied on four subblocks independently, which helps when only part of
the background in the block has been uncovered.
This fixes issue #392, which includes a test clip to reproduce the
issue.

Reduced the size of the struct by 8 bytes, which would be
a memory savings of 64800 bytes for 1080 resolutions. Had
an extra byte, so created an is_4x4 for B_PRED or SPLITMV
modes. This simplified the mode checks in
vp8_reset_mb_tokens_context and vp8_decode_mb_tokens.

This new vp8_decode_mb_tokens() uses a modified version of
WebP's GetCoeffs function. For now, the dequant does not
occur in GetCoeffs.
Tests showed performance improvements up to 2.5% depending
on material.

Adds logic to disable mfqe for the first frame after a configuration

This change added a motion search skipping mechanism similar
to what we did in second pass. For a macroblock that is very
similar to the macroblock at same location on last frame,
we can set its mv to be zero, and skip motion search. This
improves first-pass performance for slide shows and video
conferencing clips with a slight PSNR loss.

This issue likely doesn't appear in the unmodified encoder, but
sufficient hacking on the mode selection loop can expose it.
