Ronald S. Bultje 60cb39da86 Dual 16x16 inter prediction.
This patch introduces the concept of dual inter16x16 prediction. A
16x16 inter-predicted macroblock can use 2 references instead of 1,
where both references use the same mvmode (new, near/est, zero). In the
case of newmv, this means that two MVs are coded instead of one. The
frame can be encoded in 3 ways: all MBs single-prediction, all MBs dual
prediction, or per-MB single/dual prediction selection ("hybrid"), in
which case a single bit is coded per-MB to indicate whether the MB uses
single or dual inter prediction.

In the future, we can (maybe?) get further gains by mixing this with
Adrian's 32x32 work, per-segment dual prediction settings, or adding
support for dual splitmv/8x8mv inter prediction.

Gain (on derf-set, CQ mode) is ~2.8% (SSIM) or ~3.6% (glb PSNR). Most
gain is at medium/high bitrates, but there's minor gains at low bitrates
also. Output was confirmed to match between encoder and decoder.

Note for optimization people: this patch introduces a 2nd version of
16x16/8x8 sixtap/bilin functions, which does an avg instead of a
store. They may want to look and make sure this is implemented to
their satisfaction so we can optimize it best in the future.
