Target higher delta-qp for big blocks with zero motion,

Metrics on RTC set mostly positive: SSIM up by ~4%, PSRN by ~1.5%.

Modified the thresholds of deciding whether or not to skip
the transforms in model_rd_for_sb_y(). Used zbin[] instead
of dequant[] to be more precise. Also, modified the checking
coditions.
Rtc set borg test results (at speed 6) showed:
average PSNR gain: 0.138%, overall PSNR gain: 0.158%,
and SSIM gain: 0.177%.
The data rate test was modified slightly as suggested by
Marco.

This commit allows the encoder to account for additional chroma
plane costs in the mode decision process, if the current block
potentially contains significant color change. It improves the
visual quality at very low bit-rates.
The compression performance of dark720p is improved by 12.39% in
speed 6. For jimred at 150 kbps, the PSNR of V component (red)
increased by 0.2 dB, at the expense of about 5% increase in
encoding time. Note that for sequences where the chroma components
are fairly consistent, the encoding time increase is negligible.
On average the rtc set compression performance is improved by
1.172% in PSNR and 1.920% in SSIM.

In frame parallel decode, libvpx decoder decodes several frames on all
cpus in parallel fashion. If not being flushed, it will only return frame
when all the cpus are busy. If getting flushed, it will return all the
frames in the decoder. Compare with current serial decode mode in which
libvpx decoder is idle between decode calls, libvpx decoder is busy
between decode calls.
Current frame parallel decode will only speed up the decoding for frame
parallel encoded videos. For non frame parallel encoded videos, frame
parallel decode is slower than serial decode due to lack of loopfilter
worker thread.
There are still some known issues that need to be addressed. For example:
decode frame parallel videos with segmentation enabled is not right sometimes.

This patch modified struct VP9_COMP. Created a struct ThreadData
to include data that need to be copied for each thread. In
multiple thread case, one thread processes one tile. all threads
share one copy of VP9_COMP,
(refer to VP9_COMP *cpi in the code)
but each thread has its own copy of ThreadData,
(refer to ThreadData *td in the code).
Therefore, within the scope of encode_tiles(), both cpi and td
need to be passed as function parameters.
In single thread case, the FRAME_COUNTS pointer in ThreadData
points to "counts" in VP9_COMMON.

This commit changes to allow the usage of golden reference frame in
VP9 CBR mode to improve quality. VP9 supports potentially up to 8
reference buffers, it has reference buffers available for this
purpose. This was not possible in VP8 as golden and alt-ref buffers
were used for temporal scalability purpose in CBR mode in WebRTC.
For frames that update golden frame, there can be a quality boost.
The amount of allowed bitrate boost can be controlled via parameter
rc_max_inter_bitrate_pct. The inital value of the boost ratior is
currently based on over_shoot_pct. Further experiments will work
out the adaption of this boost value.

The concept:
There's too much noise in source pixels for variance and at low bitrate
the reconstructed looks nothing like the source so we have problems
getting good partitionings with either. This skirts the issue by using
a box blur scaled down version for variance calculations. To compare
against source_var_ moved keyframe to be rd based like source_var.

mi_grid_* are arrays of pointer to pointer. They save the pointers that point
to the MIs in cm->mi. But they are unnecessary and complicated. The original
goal was to remove MODE_INFO_t copy. But with an extra MODE_INFO_t pointer
inside MODE_INFO_t, same goal could be achieved.
This commit totally removes the mi_grid_* structures. But there are still
many dummy MODE_INFO_t inside cm->mi which are a waste of memory. Next commit
will do on-demand MODE_INFO_t allocation in order to save these memories.

vp9_rdopt is for making rd optimal mode decisions. vp9_rd is for all
other rd related routines. Anything used outside of making an rd optimal
decision belongs in rd.

As in VP8.
Currently, this parameter is set with the VP8E_SET_NOISE_SENSITIVITY flag.
The flag was not renamed so that we don't break the interface for webrtc. This
should probably be changed at some point in the future.

This commit added a speed feature to control the step_param used in
full pixel motion search. The intention is to reduced the search
steps for high speed real time coding.

Encoder still uses SWITCHABLE as default via DEFAULT_INTERP_FILTER,
but does not override the default if it is not SWITCHABLE.

This commit enables an adaptive transform size selection method
for speed -6. It uses largest transform size when the sse is more
than 4 times of variance, i.e., most energy is compacted in the
DC coefficient. Otherwise, use the default TX_8X8. It improves
the compression efficiency for rtc set of speed -6 by 0.8%, no
speed change observed.

This commit enables a fast reference motion vector search scheme.
It checks the nearest top and left neighboring blocks to decide the
most probable predicted motion vector. If it finds the two have
the same motion vectors, it then skip finding exterior range for
the second most probable motion vector, and correspondingly skips
the check for NEARMV.
The runtime of speed -5 goes down
pedestrian at 1080p 29377 ms -> 27783 ms
vidyo at 720p 11830 ms -> 10990 ms
i.e., 6%-8% speed-up.
For rtc set, the compression performance
goes down by about -1.3% for both speed -5 and -6.

This commit fixes the potential issue in the non-RD mode decision
flow that only checks part of the block to estimate the cost. It
was due to the use of fixed transform size, in replacing the
largest transform block size. This commit enables per transform
block cost estimation of the intra prediction mode in the non-RD
mode decision.

This commit replaces a few use cases of cpi->common with preset
variable cm, to avoid unnecessary pointer fetch in the non-RD
coding mode.

In real-time speed 6, no partition search is done. The inter
prediction results got from picking mode can be reused in the
following encoding process. A speed feature reuse_inter_pred_sby
is added to only enable the resue in speed 6.
This patch doesn't change encoding result. RTC set tests showed
that the encoding speed gain is 2% - 5%.

Speed 6 uses small tx size, namely 8x8. max_intra_bsize needs to
be modified accordingly to ensure valid intra mode checking.
Borg test on RTC set showed an overall PSNR gain of 0.335% in speed
-6.
This also changes speed -5 encoding by allowing DC_PRED checking
for block32x32. Borg test on RTC set showed a slight PSNR gain of
0.145%, and no noticeable speed change.

This is the first step to rework the rate-distortion modeling used
in rtc coding mode. The overall goal is to make the modeling
customized for the statistics encountered in the rtc coding.
This commit makes encoder to perform rate-distortion modeling for
DC and AC coefficients separately. No speed changes observed.
The coding performance for pedestrian_area_1080p is largely
improved:
speed -5, from 79558 b/f, 37.871 dB -> 79598 b/f, 38.600 dB
speed -6, from 79515 b/f, 37.822 dB -> 79544 b/f, 38.130 dB
Overall performance for rtc set at speed -6 is improved by 0.67%.
