Increased threshold(t) for interp filter search. This sped up the
encoder with some PSNR loss.
Borg tests were ran at speed 2.
t = 100, PSNR loss:
-0.710%(derf); -0.561%(stdhd); -0.647%(youtube)
speedup:
9%(derf); 3%(stdhd); 5.7%(youtube)
t = 500, PSNR loss:
-1.687%(derf); -1.665%(stdhd); -1.664%(youtube)
speedup:
18%(derf); 10%(stdhd); 8%(youtube)

This commit enables an adaptive prediction filter type selection
for sub8x8 block sizes. In speed 1, it re-uses the filter type of
collocated 8x8 block if it is tested in the rate-distortion optimization
loop, for the sub8x8 blocks. Otherwise, it runs the normal test
over all the three filter types. In speed 2, it re-uses the 8x8
block's prediction filter type, if available. Otherwise, force it
to be EIGHTTAP.
Compression and speed performance wise:
speed 1
derf -0.266%
yt -0.138%
bus at 2000 kbps: 33766ms -> 30451ms (10% speed-up)
football at 600 kbps: 48173ms -> 43786ms (9% speed-up)
speed 2
derf -0.026%
yt +0.134%
bus at 2000 kbps: 18973ms -> 17698ms (6% speed-up)
football at 600 kbps: 26748ms -> 25096ms (6% speed-up)

This commit constrains the maximal motion search range for sub8x8
blocks to be [-1023, 1023], in the unit of full pixel.

In evaluating partition split case, Wrong partition size is used in
calling partition_plane_context(). This commit change to use the
correct sub partition size. The incorrect partition size used were
causing an ASAN error in unit test.

Clean up and simplification of both estimate_max_q
variants and only call once per clip/section.
This leads to a more constrained range of Q values
across a clip / section.
Average gains across all 4 test sets:-
PSNR ~0.5% SSIM ~0.3%

In lossless coding, distortion is always 0. Early exit based on this
metric was incorrect.
This CL also changed to use best_rd instead of distortion as the metric
for easly exit as requested by Jim.

Add a full range motion search for regular block sizes. This runs
exhaustive search within the given reference area. This commit further
optimizes the search process by combining 4 points test into one
pipeline, which gives 30% speed-up as compared to run each individual
point at a time.
This full range search serves as a best possible motion search reference.
When replacing the diamond search with full range search, the speed 0
runtime of bus CIF at 2000 kbps goes from 153872ms to 623051ms. The
compression performance compared to speed 0 setting gains 0.585% for
derf set.
