The code was not checking for frame sizes smaller than 3 bytes, and the
 partition size checks might have failed if the input buffer was within
 16MB of the top of the heap.
In addition, the reference count on the current frame buffer was not
 being decremented on error, so after a small number of errors, no new
 frame buffer could be found and it would run off the list of them.

On each MB, loopfiltering is done right after MB decoding. This
combines two loops in multi-threaded code into one, which reduces
number of synchronizations to half.

The above-row/left-col data are saved in temp buffers for
next-row/next MB decoding.

Tests on 4-core gLucid machine showed 10% decoder performance
gain with threads=4 (tulip clip). Testing on other platforms
isn't done yet.

Changes 'The VP8 project' to 'The WebM project', for consistency
with other webmproject.org repositories.

Fixes issue #97.

Change-Id: I37c13ed5fbdb9d334ceef71c6350e9febed9bbba

adds a compile time option: --enable-arm-asm-detok which pulls in
vp8/decoder/arm/detokenize.asm

currently about break even speed wise, but changes are pending to
the fill code (branch and load 3 bytes versus conditionally always
load one) and the error handling. Currently it doesn't handle zero
runs or overrunning the buffer.

this is really just so i don't have to rebase my changes all the
time to run benchmarks - now just need to replace one file!

The gf_active code is only used by the encoder, so it was moved from
common and decoder.

This is the first modification of VP8 multi-thread decoder, which uses
same threads to decode macroblocks and then do loopfiltering for each
frame.

Inspired by Rob Clark, synchronization was done on every 8 macroblocks
instead of every macroblock to reduce lock contention.

Comparing with the original code, this implementation gave about 15%-
20% performance gain while decoding my test clips on a Core2 Quad
platform (Linux).

The work is not done yet.

Test on other platforms are needed.

At the end of the decode, frame buffers were being copied.
The frames are not updated after the copy, they are just
for reference on later frames.  This change allows multiple
references to the same frame buffer instead of copying it.

Changes needed to be made to the encoder to handle this.  The
encoder is still doing frame buffer copies in similar places
where pointer reference could be done.

Change I9fd1a5a4 updated the multithreaded loopfilter to avoid
reinitializing several parameteres if they haven't changed from the
last frame, but the code to update the last frame's parameters wasn't
invoked in the multithreaded case.

When the license headers were updated, they accidentally contained
trailing whitespace, so unfortunately we have to touch all the files
again.
