At the edges of the picture only a subset of partitions are legal. Add
new contexts for these borders so they don't distort the probabilities of
the interior of the image where all partitions are legal.

Only include one context for each block size of each border direction
because so few blocks fall into these contexts to begin with.

This commit adds a new experiment to allow disabling of loop filtering
on tile boundaries. It is implemented by adding a syntax field
"loopfilter_across_tiles_enabled" into the uncompressed frame header. 
If it is set to 0, decoder and encoder will disables loop filtering for
block edges that are also tile boundaries.

The main objective is to reduce computational complexity.
The domain transform filter has an effect of edge preserving smoothing
at a lower computational cost than the bilateral filter, and can be
readily paralelized.

A little drop in coding efficiency about 0.06% for lowres, 0.16% for
midres.

This is added as part of ALT_INTRA experiment.

This uses interpolation between top row and estimated bottom row; as
well as left column and estimated right column to generate the
predicted block.The interpolation is done using a predefined weight
array.

Based on experiments, the currently chosen weight array was created
to represent a quadratic curve, but can be tuned further if needed.

Improvement from baseline on Derf set:
ALL Keyframes: 1.279%

Improvement from existing ALT_INTRA:
ALL Keyframes: 1.146%

These signals were in the uncompressed frame header (as a temporary
hack), which caused two problems:

* We don't want that header to be duplicated in the slice header
* It was necessary to signal the number of bits to transmit up front

However, the filter size can be 128x128 which is greater than the SB
size, and a decoder wouldn't be able to know whether to read a bit or
not until the final SB of that 128x128 block has been decoded
(depending on whether the 128x128 is all skip or not).  Therefore the
signalling was changed for 128x128 blocks so that every top left SB of
a 128x128 filter block contains a signal regardless of whether the
block is all skip or not.  Also, all the MB's of 128x128 block are
filtered even if they are skip MB's.  This gives the signal a purpose
even when the 128x128 block is all skip, and it also gives a slight
coding gain as it leaves a way to filter skip blocks, which was
previously forbidden.

enums for BLOCK_SIZE, TX_SIZE and PREDICTION_MODE.

Note: These were converted to #defines earlier to save on memory:
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/#/c/269854/

But we, instead, use attribute 'packed' (see here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Type-Attributes.html#Common-Type-Attributes)
to ensure that these enums use the smallest possible integer type,
and so use smallest memory when used in structs/arrays etc.

Includes a major refactoring/enhancement to support
tile-adaptive switchable restoration. The framework can be
readily extended to add more restoration schemes in the
future. Also includes various cleanups and fixes.

Specifically the framework allows restoration to be conducted
on tiles such that each tile can be either left unrestored, or
use bilateral or wiener filtering.

There is a modest improvemnt in coding efficiency (0.1 - 0.2%).

Further enhancements will be added subsequently to improve coding
efficiency and complexity.
