Fix a bug in RATE_FACTOR_LEVEL definition for ext-refs

There was a bug in the original set up for RATE_FACTOR_LEVELS, which
results that rate_factor_deltas for GF_ARF_STD is 2.00, instead of the
intentional value of 1.75, whereas for KF_STD is 0.00, instead of the
intentional value of 2.00.

Nevertheless, if simply fixing the bug as in the first patch, the RD
performance unexpectedly dropped by 0.143% in Avg bitrate using
Overall PSNR, especially for following sequences in lowres:

bridge_close_cif: dropped by 1.468%
container_cif: dropped by 2.140%
husky_cif: dropped by 0.826%
motherdaughter_cif: dropped by 0.798%
rasehorses_240p: dropped by 0.805%
students_cif: dropped by 1.411%

This indicates that we should boost up the value for GF_ARF_STD from
1.75 to at least to 2.00. After doing so, while still keeps 2.00 for
KF_STD, the new patch achieves a small gain of 0.15% for the baseline,
and a smaller gain of 0.06% for the experiment of ext-refs. Most
sequences keep the similar RD performance in lowres, except for the
following ones that obtain a bigger gain:

(1) Baseline:
container_cif: 1.628%
students_cif: 1.015%

(2) ext-refs
tennis_sif: 1.248%
