INT64_MAX may be assigned as RDCOST when RDCSOST computation is skipped
for speed, this commit to prevent INT64_MAX from being used as real
RDCOST in transform size decision.

After change of MI context storage , mi_8x8[] pointer may be null for
a block outside of image border. The commit changes to access the data
only after validation of mi_row and mi_col.

39c7b01d accidently reverted the row/col initialization, which broke
mv clamps, which is dependent on the sites for valid motion vector
range. This commit fixed the issue.

This commit enables forcing all coefficients zero per transformed
block, when its rate-distortion cost is lower than regular coeff
quantization.
The overall performance improvement (including its parent patch on
calculating rd cost per transformed block) at speed 1:
derf: 0.298%
yt: 0.452%
hd: 0.741%
stdhd: 0.006%

Adds modeled functions to decide the qp for altref frames in constant q
mode similar to other functions in use in bitrate mode.
Also turns on the constrained quality mode (end-usage=2) option which
was turned off before. Basic testing shows the mode works in principle,
to cap bitrate to the target-bitrate specified, while allowing lower
bitrate depending on the cq-level specified. The mode will need to be
improved over time.
Results for constant quality vs bitrate control mode:
derfraw300/fullderfraw: +3.0% at constant quality over bitrate control.
fullstdhdraw: +4.341%
stdhdraw250: +5.361%

This commit makes the rate-distortion optimization loop evaluate
the rd costs of regular quantization and all zero coeffs, per
transformed block. It improves speed 1 compression performance:
derf: 0.245%
yt: 0.515%
For a large partition that consists multiple transformed blocks,
this allows more flexibility to selectively force a portion of
them coded as all zero coeffs, as well be continued in the next
patches.

The sub8x8 blocks has its own motion vector reference scheme. The
mv_pred is only used blocks of sizes 8x8 and above, to find the
starting point for motion search.
This change does not change any coding behavior. It makes the
encoding process slightly faster. (0.5% speed-up for local test on
speed 1.)

The fake token EOSB may cause invaild memory read in pack token, this
commit reworked the loop to avoid such invalid read.

This commit cleans up the second reference check in the
rate-distortion optimization loop of sub8x8 blocks.

The commit added reset of pred_mv at the beginning of each SB64x64
partition mv search, also limited the usage of pred_mv only when
search on the largest partition is already done. This is to fix
a crash at speed 1/2 encoder where an invalid mv is used in mv
search.

This commit enables adaptive constraint on motion search range for
smaller partitions, given the motion vectors of collocated larger
partition as a candidate initial search point.
It makes speed 0 runtime of bus at CIF and 2000 kbps goes from
167s down to 162s (3% speed-up), at 0.01dB performance gains. In
the settings of speed 1, this makes the runtime goes from 33687 ms
to 32142 ms (4.5% speed-up), at 0.03dB performance gains.
Compression performance wise, it gains at speed 1:
derf 0.118%
yt 0.237%
hd 0.203%
stdhd 0.438%

Mis-merge of the following change managed to break mode order
and delete two mode options (new alt ref and near alt ref)
It also created a situation where we could test two undefined
modes off the end of the VP9_mode_order[] data structure.

Removes this speed feature since it is very slow and unlikely
to be used in practice. This cleanup removes a bunch of unnecessary
complications in the outer encode loop.

Propose some changes to the speed 2 settings to improve quality.
In particular, turns off the adjust_thresholds_by_speed feature
which improves results by 6%. Also removes the code for
adjust_thresholds_by_speed since it conflicts with the adaptive
rd thresh feature.
Overall, with this change speed 2 is -15.2% from speed 0 settings,
on derf, which is significantly better than -21.6% down before.

mode_info_context was stored as a grid of MODE_INFO structs.
The grid now constists of pointers to MODE_INFO structs. The
MODE_INFO structs are now stored as a stream (decoder only),
eliminating unnecessary copies and is a little more cache
friendly.
