For coefficients, use int16_t (instead of short); for pixel values in
16-bit intermediates, use uint16_t (instead of unsigned short); for all
others, use uint8_t (instead of unsigned char).

Use these, instead of the 4/5-dimensional arrays, to hold statistics,
counts, accumulations and probabilities for coefficient tokens. This
commit also re-allows ENTROPY_STATS to compile.

This adds Debargha's DCT/DWT hybrid and a regular 32x32 DCT, and adds
code all over the place to wrap that in the bitstream/encoder/decoder/RD.

Some implementation notes (these probably need careful review):
- token range is extended by 1 bit, since the value range out of this
  transform is [-16384,16383].
- the coefficients coming out of the FDCT are manually scaled back by
  1 bit, or else they won't fit in int16_t (they are 17 bits). Because
  of this, the RD error scoring does not right-shift the MSE score by
  two (unlike for 4x4/8x8/16x16).
- to compensate for this loss in precision, the quantizer is halved
  also. This is currently a little hacky.
- FDCT and IDCT is double-only right now. Needs a fixed-point impl.
- There are no default probabilities for the 32x32 transform yet; I'm
  simply using the 16x16 luma ones. A future commit will add newly
  generated probabilities for all transforms.
- No ADST version. I don't think we'll add one for this level; if an
  ADST is desired, transform-size selection can scale back to 16x16
  or lower, and use an ADST at that level.

Additional notes specific to Debargha's DWT/DCT hybrid:
- coefficient scale is different for the top/left 16x16 (DCT-over-DWT)
  block than for the rest (DWT pixel differences) of the block. Therefore,
  RD error scoring isn't easily scalable between coefficient and pixel
  domain. Thus, unfortunately, we need to compute the RD distortion in
  the pixel domain until we figure out how to scale these appropriately.

This commit removed a couple of redundant data structures in frame
coding contextsm, mode_context and mode_context_a, and changed to
use vp9_mode_contexts only. The switch of the context for different
frame type now relies on the switch of frame coding context between
lfc and lfc_a. This commit also removed a number of memcpy among
these redundant data structure.

Experiments with a larger set of contexts and some
clean up to replace magic numbers regarding the
number of contexts.

The starting values and rate of backwards adaption
are still suspect and based on a small set of tests.
Added forwards adjustment of probabilities.

The net result of adding the new context and forward
update is small compared to the old context from the
legacy find_near function.  (down a little on derf but
up by a similar amount for HD)

HOWEVER.... with the new context and forward update
the impact of disabling the reverse update (which may be
necessary in some use cases to facilitate parallel decoding)
is hugely reduced.

For the old context without forward update, the impact of
turning off reverse update (Experiment was with SB off) was
Derf - 0.9, Yt -1.89, ythd -2.75 and sthd -8.35. The impact was
mainly at low data rates.

With the new context and forward update enabled the impact
for all the test sets was no more than 0.5-1% (again most at
the low end).

A patch on compound inter-intra prediction.

In compound inter-intra prediction, a new predictor for
16x16 inter coded MBs are obtained by combining a single
inter predictor with a 16x16 intra predictor, in a manner
that the weight varies with distance from the top/left
boundary. The current search strategy is to combine the best
inter mode with the best intra mode obtained independently.

Results so far:

derf +0.31%
yt +0.32%
std-hd +0.35%
hd +0.42%

It is conceivable that the results would improve somewhat
with a more thorough search strategy where all intra modes
are searched given the best mv, or even a joint search for
the best mv and the best intra mode.

This change is a fix / extension of the newbestrefmv
experiment. As such it is presented without IFDEF.

The change creates a new context for coding inter modes
in vp9_find_mv_refs(). This replaces the context that
was previously calculated in vp9_find_near_mvs().
The new context is unoptimized and not necessarily
any better at this stage (results pending), but eliminates
the need for a legacy call to vp9_find_near_mvs().
Based on numbers from Scott, this could help decode
speed by several %.

In a later patch I will add support for forward update of
context (assuming this helps) and refine the context as
necessary.

Preliminary patch on a new 4x4 intra mode B_CONTEXT_PRED where the
dominant direction from the context is used to encode. Various decoder
changes are needed to support decoding of B_CONTEXT_PRED in conjunction
with hybrid transforms since the scan order and tokenization depends on
the actual direction of prediction obtained from the context. Currently
the traditional directional modes are used in conjunction with the
B_CONTEXT_PRED, which also seems to provide the best results.

The gains are small - in the 0.1% range.

There is a macro DEFAULT_INTERP_FILTER defined in encoder/onyx_if.c that
is set as EIGHTTAP for now - so SWITCHABLE is not really used. Ideally,
this should be SWITCHABLE but that would make the encoder quite a bit slower.
We will change the default filter to SWITCHABLE once we find a faster way to
search for switchable filters.

Separates the entropy coding context models for 4x4, 8x8 and 16x16
ADST variants.

There is a small improvement for HD (hd/std-hd) by about 0.1-0.2%.
Results on derf/yt are about the same, probably because there is not
enough statistics.

Results may improve somewhat once the initial probability tables are
updated for the hybrid transforms which is coming soon.

Adds a new experiment with redesigned/refactored motion vector entropy
coding. The patch also takes a first step towards separating the
integer and fractional pel components of a MV. However the fractional
pel encoding still depends on the integer pel part and so they are
not fully independent. Further experiments are in progress to see
how much they can be decoupled without affecting performance.
All components including entropy coding/decoding, costing for MV
search, forward updates and backward updates to probability tables,
have been implemented.

Results so far:
derf: +0.19%
std-hd: +0.28%
yt: +0.80%
hd: +1.15%

Patch: Simplifies the fractional pel models:

Enable ADST/DCT of dimension 16x16 for I16X16 modes. This change provides
benefits mostly for hd sequences.

Set up the framework for selectable transform dimension.

Also allowing quantization parameter threshold to control the use
of hybrid transform (This is currently disabled by setting threshold
always above the quantization parameter. Adaptive thresholding can
be built upon this, which will further improve the coding performance.)

The coding performance gains (with respect to the codec that has all
other configuration settings turned on) are

derf:   0.013
yt:     0.086
hd:     0.198
std-hd: 0.501
