Change only affects 1 pass vbr mode, speed >=5.
Increase min_thresh, decrease boost, and set a min/max
value for gf_interval.

Avoid copy-block when denoising is at LowLow level (i.e., no denoising is done).
Instead, don't enter denoiser at all, and when level goes back up over kLowLow
do a reset in denoiser.
Change-Id: I0544adf58f4dd51ecc4a4607fcb0353bfbbb7a59
This make it more likely clean/low-noise content will
be set as LowLow, and hence no denoising will be done.
Also set early exit on denoising for small blocks.

Some cleanup and bugfix: pass mi_row/mi_col (not mv_col/mv_row)
to build_inter_predictors. This only affects case where
the frame is resized, but since denoising is not done on resized
frames, the fix has not effect currently.

Change only affects 1 pass, vbr, speed = 5 (real-time mode).
Some improvement for high motion content.
AvgPSNR/SSIM metrics for ytlive set all up, on average ~2%,
some clips (high motion ones) up 4/5%.
Encoder speed down: on mynintendo_x1.1280_720.y4m: 47fps -> 44fps.

Allow the encode loop to select from a wider range of Q values
when encoding normal (non arf or kf) frames.
This change is targeted at improving psycho-visual quality in some
easy sections that are currently not getting enough bits.
This is likely to be a little worse from a metrics perspective and may also
have a small impact on encode speed in cases where extra recode
iterations are triggered.

Adds a second threshold for recodes even on frames where
recode is normally disabled if there is a big rate miss.

Fix the threshold for forcing refresh of golden frame based
on high motion. The current comparison was incorrect and
prevented this (force update of gf on high motion) from being used.
For now keep this logic under a flag (and off for now) so as to
not change behavior, until further testing.

+5.857% BD-RATE on SCREEN_CONTENT
Leaving this off for non-screen content because:
+25.300% on TWITCH120
+37.833% BD-RATE on RTC
Change-Id: Ie0a312182d6cc859fb04298e4cd81d02b39e23fe
For 1 pass vbr mode: Increase the period of gf update on scene
cut (keep it same as orginal/default setting for now).

The change https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/#/c/329181/
also changed behavior for cbr mode, which causes some regression
in screenshare test in webrtc.
Resetting the specific change to leave the cbr behavior
unchanged for now.
Change-Id: I52df158806422f86398e1d2f522e92067d8325eb
Some adjustments to inter-mode selection for vbr mode.
Condition some of the bias to low/zero motion on cbr mode, and
don't use int_pro_motion_estimation for golden ref
(treat it same as last ref).
Change only affect 1 pass vbr mode, speed >=5 (non-rd pickmode).
Encoding time increase within ~5%.
Avg PSNR/SSIM on RTC set increase by ~2%, all clips up,
ranging from 0.5 to 4%.

Don't advance the svc frame counters on dropped frame,
since this can break the referencing scheme and lead
to a crash/assert.
Updated svc-datarate unittest to add a lower bitrate test.
Change only affects 1 pass cbr svc, with frame dropper enabled.
Change-Id: Ibb7530b7a587a9344d46898d9286fd9e2ef0779c
Use the superframe counter to set the key frame, and force
it to the key frame on base spatial layer only.
Also, update svc frame counters under frame dropping.
Update unittest: add specific tests with short key frame period.
