    Remove reference frame buffer update for show_exsiting_frame · f9e38a7b
    Wei-ting Lin authored
    Originally we need to send the refresh flag and the virtual indices
    mapping for the reference frame buffer update for show_existing_frame to
    have the BWDREF_FRAME replace the LAST_FRAME.
    
    To remove sending this information, we update the the virtual indices
    of the reference frame buffer after the last_bipred_frame is encoded,
    and therefore the decoder will receive the updated reference mapping
    at the next non-show-existing frame.
    
    As a result, we can save 4 bytes per show-existing frame, and get 0.12,
    0.2, and 0.07 BDRATE improvement in lowres, derf, and midref test set
    respectively.
