    Use SATD based mode decision for block sizes below 16x16 · b4b5af6a
    Jingning Han authored
    This commit makes the encoder to select between SATD/variance as
    metric for mode decision. It also allows to account chroma
    component costs for mode decision as well. The overall encoding
    time increase as compared to variance based mode selection is about
    15% for speed -6. The compression performance is on average 2.2%
    better than variance based approach, with about 5% compression
    performance gains for hard clips (e.g., jimredvga, nikas720p, and
    mmmoving) at lower bit-rate range.
