Usage of encode_b_args is unnecessary because encode_block_pass1() doesn't
use them. That's why optimize_init_b() call is also not required.

As Yunqing suggested, this commit makes non-RD mode decision always run
sub-pixel motion search in NEWMV mode. The compression performance
gains becomes fairly significant after we enabled sub-pixel accuracy
motion compensated prediction to calculate SAD cost.
For test sequences pedestrian_area at 1080p and vidyo1 at 720p, the
runtime goes slower by 5%. For rtc test set, the compression performance
is improved by 21.20%.

The commit change to use partitions sizes directly from last frame
for frames directly where last frame selects partitions sizes based
on coding efficiency.
On --rt --cpu-used=-5, the change hurts compression by 4% but reduces
encoding time by ~20%

This commit builds the actual prediction block in sub-pixel accuracy
and uses which to calculate SAD for non-RD mode decision. In the trail
run on pedestrian_area at 1080p, rtc speed -7 runtime goes from
23495 ms -> 25107 ms (7% slower). The compression performance is
improved by 20.57% for rtc test set.

Use a set of dedicated variables to buffer the current best mode
in non-RD mode decision. This allows to use mode_info for more
complicated test in the non-RD process.

Adds a method for determining a fixed size partition based on
variance of a 64x64 SB. This method is added to rtc speed 6.
Also fixes a bug in rtc_use_partition() and includes some
refactoring related to partitioning search, and some cosmetics.
Currently compared to speed 5, the coding efficiency of speed 6
is -19% and that of speed 7 is -55%, in cbr mode.

The optimizer did something funny with the code around
line 1412. Before the call to encode_sb split_dist was
set properly but after it was adjusted and converted to
a negative.

If sf->disable_split_mask is DISABLE_ALL_SPLIT, disable
sf->adaptive_pred_interp_filter to avoid unnecessary operations.

Moves the existing speed 6 to speed 7 and adds an
intermediate level 6 which is roughly in between
speeds 6 and 7 in both speed and coding efficiency.
Also includes some minor fixes/adjustments.

Skip coefficient cost update in non-RD mode decision setting. Allow
periodical mode and motion vector cost update. Currently every other
8 frames. The increment runtime is a constant number. Hence more
visible for CIF resolution, while negligible for 1080p.
Speed -6 compression performance for rtc set is improved by 4.5%.

This commit makes a refactoring of the rtc_use_partition. It allows
the encoder to take a preferred block size for non-RD mode decision.
The boundary blocks are handled such that smaller block sizes that
fit in the boundary size will be used instread.
In rtc mode, the coding performance of speed -6 for pedestrian_1080p
goes from
158980 b/f, 38.934 dB, 22721 ms to
159008 b/f, 40.064 dB, 23721 ms.
For rtc set, the speed -6 compression performance is improved by
26%. Still about 2dB behind speed -5 at this point.

* Reduce the number of short cirtcuit checks by pre-computing and combining like checks.
* Postpone non-trivial initializations until after the shortcircuits are evaluated.
* Add some consts and const pointers.
No change to the actual results of the call or output of the encoder.

This commit enables the use of DC, vertical, and horizontal intra
prediction mode in rtc non-RD mode decision. When the best cost value
of inter modes is above a given threshold, the encoder runs the
above three intra modes and selects the one that has minimum
prediction residual in terms of SAD.
This together with recent changes on non-RD mode decision and coding
control improves compression performance of speed -6 by
derf 91%
yt 61%
hd 46%
stdhd 52%
In terms of encoding speed, it is about 3 times faster than speed -5.

When non-RD coding decision is used in rtc mode, the alt reference
is not used for inter frame prediction. This commit disabled alt ref
option whenever speed -6 is used.
