Rewrite reference frame costing in the RD loop.

I now see I didn't write a very long description, so let's do it
here then. We took a pretty big quality hit (0.1-0.2%) from my
recent fix of the inversion of arguments to vp8_cost_bit() in the
RD reference frame costing. I looked into it and basically the
costing prevented us from switching reference frames. This is of
course silly, since each frame codes its own prob_intra_coded, so
using last frame cost indications as a limiting factor can never
be right.

Here, I've rewritten that code to estimate costings based partially
on statistics from progress on current frame encoding. Overall,
this gives us a ~0.2%-0.3% improvement over what we had previously
before my argument-inversion-fix, and thus about ~0.4% over current
git (on derf-set), and a little more (0.5-1.0%) on HD/STD-HD/YT.
