The control of using reference frame motion vector is a separate
factor from the existence of previous frame motion vectors. This
commit decouples these two, such that the encoder can control the
use of reference motion vector. When it is used, one can further
identify if the previous frame exists or not, then to decide if
need to force use_prev_frame_mvs to be zero.

This solves the issue where the previous frame mvs is set to be
0 and it accidentally shuts off the access to all other existing
referece frames mvs in the mfmv system. It brings back the coding
performance gains to normal.

Before this patch, striped loop restoration didn't restart correctly
on each tile row. Now, the loop restoration stripes start at the top
of a tile row in the same way as if it were the top of the entire
frame.

At the frame header level, add the checking on whether an inter-coded
frame allows the use of 'skip_mode'. At the block level, add the
decoding of 'skip_mode' for all the blocks if 'skip_mode' is allowed
for the current frame. If 'skip_mode' is set, no further bit needs to
read out, and the block is set as:
- Inter-coded in compound mode;
- With the nearest forward and backward reference frames;
- In NEAREST_NEARESTMV mode;
- In SIMPLE_TRANSLATION motion mode;
- In COMPOUND_AVERAGE compound type; and
- Skip set for residual.

The frame marker system supports one to map the reference frame
index into the natural order. It allows direct checking on the
efficacy of the reference frames given their relative locations
with respect to the current coding frame.

This commit uses such property to filter out reference frames
less likely to contribute coding gains from the rate-distortion
optimization process. For example, it takes out the check on
last2 / 3 frames, when their actual location is further away
from the golden frame.

The AWCY results show 0.6% performance regression. The encoding
speed gets doubled.

To use the speed up, one needs to turn on frame-marker experiment
before we turn it on by default, and enable selective_ref_frame
entry in the speed feature.

The bits needed by striped loop restoration are now in
RestorationInfo (which also gets rid of a rather ugly extra
index).

The scratch buffer that's used for self-guided restoration has been
moved up to its own variable (rst_tmpbuf).

All the rest of the fields are now safely hidden inside restoration.c

This patch also does a big cleanup of the initialisation code in
loop_restoration_rows: it doesn't need to be as repetitive now that
the fields of YV12_BUFFER_CONFIG can be accessed by plane index.

Add an experiment "tmp", which includes:
1. Always use larger block size while storing frame MVs and make
it consistent for CB4X4 or non-CB4X4 cases. Namely, use 8x8 for
4x4 mi size and 16x16 for 8x8 mi size.
2. Allocate smaller buffer for frame MVs and save memory usage.
3. Use nearby 8x8 or 16x16 location's previous frame MVs, and make
the logic simple.
4. Reduce the number of copying for frame MVs, that is very costly
in decoder.

Baseline decoder got 5+% speedup. Borg test on lowres set showed a
+0.009% PSNR difference before/after the patch.

Earlier, the superres scale was in the form of:
N/16, where N ranged from 8 to 16.

We change this to the form:
8/D, where D ranges from 8 to 16.

This helps on the decoder side, by making it possible to work on 8x8
blocks at a time.

The coding performance loss on key frame is 0.14% for lowres and
noise level difference for video sequence. The loss on key frame
for midres is 0.05% and noise level for whole video. The change
on hdres kf coding is 0.015%.
