Make framebuffer allocations according to the chroma subsamping
factors in use. A bit is placed in the raw part of the frame header for
each of the two subsampling factors. This will be moved in a future
commit to make them part of the TBD feature set bits, probably only set
on keyframes, etc.

We don't have two loopfilter types anymore.

Update and buffer left/above partition information context per 8x8
block. This allows to further enable recursive partition down to
4x4 block size, and hence deprecating I4X4_PRED and SPLITMV.

This commit also fixes a context buffer swap/restore issue in 32x32
partition type search. This gives 0.1% performance gain for derf/yt.
Will refactor the superblock partition type search into recursion
form.

Whilst the number of reference buffers used by an

now be selected from 8 possible buffers.

This commit enables selecting probability models for recursive block
partition information syntax, depending on its above/left partition
information, as well as the current block size. These conditional
probability models are reasonably stationary and consistent across
frames, hence the backward adaptive approach is used to maintain and
update the contextual models.

It achieves coding performance gains (on top of enabling rectangular
block sizes):
derf:   0.242%
yt:     0.391%
hd:     0.376%
stdhd:  0.645%

Adds an experiment that codes an end-of-orientation symbol
for every eligible zero encountered in scan order.

This cleans out various other sub-experiments that were part
of the origiinal patch, which will be later included if found
useful.

Results are slightly positive on all sets (0.1 - 0.2% range).

For 1080 material, this buffer is currently 2,270,928 bytes.  This patch swaps
ptrs instead of copying and uses the last show_frame flag instead of setting
the entire buffer to zero.  For the test clip used, the decoder improved by up
to 1%.

Enable recursive partition information coding from SB64X64 down to
MB16X16. The bit-stream syntax is now supporting rectangular block
sizes. It starts from SB64X64 and recursively describes the partition
type of the current block. If the partition type is PARTITION_NONE,
the block is coded as a single unit; if it is PARTITION_HORZ or
PARTITION_VERT, the block is segmented into two independently coded
rectangular units, with no further partition needed; otherwise, the
block is segmented into 4 square blocks. i.e., PARTITION_SPLIT case,
each can be potentially further partitioned.

Forward adaptive probability modeling is used for the partition
information coding, conditioned on the current block size.

This flag was added to VP8 to allow a mode where MB-level skipping
was not allowed, saving a bit per mb. It was never used in practice,
and hasn't been tested in VP9, so remove it.

This is work-in-progress, it implements multiple ARF
encoding behind an experimental flag.

It adds the ability to insert multiple ARF frames into a
single ARF group. This patch implements the reordering
of the coded frames, and implements a fixed-length coding
pattern. It applies a fixed quantizer strategy based on
where the frame is in the coding sequence.

Further work to modify the rate control strategy is
ongoing and will be submitted via a set of future patches.

In this first step, each ARF group is recursively
bisected and an ARF frame added at that position in the
sequence. The recursion continues until ARF frames are
within MIN_GF_INTERVAL frames.

The code sits behind the "multiple-arf" experimental
flag ("CONFIG_MULTIPLE_ARF"). The experimental flag
"oneshotq" ("CONFIG_ONESHOTQ") also needs to be enabled
for this patch to work correctly.

Pearson correlation for above or left is significantly higher than for
previous-in-scan-order (absolute values depend on position in scan, but
in general, we gain about 0.1-0.2 by using either above or left; using
both basically just makes this even better). For eob branch skipping,
we continue to use the previous token in scan order.

This helps about 0.9% on derf after re-training on a limited data set.
Full re-training and results on larger-resolution clips are pending.

Note that this commit breaks trellis, so we can probably get further
gains out of it by fixing trellis at some later point.

Adds a per-frame, strength adjustable, in loop deringing filter. Uses
the existing vp9_post_proc_down_and_across 5 tap thresholded blur
code, with a brute force search for the threshold.

Results almost strictly positive on the YT HD set, either having no
effect or helping PSNR in the range of 1-3% (overall average 0.8%).
Results more mixed for the CIF set, (-0.5 min, 1.4 max, 0.1 avg).
This has an almost strictly negative impact to SSIM, so examining a
different filter or a more balanced search heuristic is in order.

Other test set results pending.

This patch revamps the entropy coding of coefficients to code first
a non-zero count per coded block and correspondingly remove the EOB
token from the token set.

STATUS:
Main encode/decode code achieving encode/decode sync - done.
Forward and backward probability updates to the nzcs - done.
Rd costing updates for nzcs - done.
Note: The dynamic progrmaming apporach used in trellis quantization
is not exactly compatible with nzcs. A suboptimal approach has been
used instead where branch costs are updated to account for changes
in the nzcs.

TODO:
Training the default probs/counts for nzcs

Split macroblock and superblock tokenization and detokenization
functions and coefficient-related data structs so that the bitstream
layout and related code of superblock coefficients looks less like it's
a hack to fit macroblocks in superblocks.

In addition, unify chroma transform size selection from luma transform
size (i.e. always use the same size, as long as it fits the predictor);
in practice, this means 32x32 and 64x64 superblocks using the 16x16 luma
transform will now use the 16x16 (instead of the 8x8) chroma transform,
and 64x64 superblocks using the 32x32 luma transform will now use the
32x32 (instead of the 16x16) chroma transform.

Lastly, add a trellis optimize function for 32x32 transform blocks.

HD gains about 0.3%, STDHD about 0.15% and derf about 0.1%. There's
a few negative points here and there that I might want to analyze
a little closer.

This patch extends the previous support for using references of a
different resolution in ZEROMV mode to all inter prediction modes.
Subpixel based best-mv scoring is disabled when the reference frame
differs in resolution from the current frame.

Change-Id: Id4dc3e5e6692de98d9857fd56bfad3ac57e944ac

This patch allows coding frames using references of different
resolution, in ZEROMV mode. For compound prediction, either
reference may be scaled.

To test, I use the resize_test and enable WRITE_RECON_BUFFER
in vp9_onyxd_if.c. It's also useful to apply this patch to
test/i420_video_source.h:

  --- a/test/i420_video_source.h
  +++ b/test/i420_video_source.h
  @@ -93,6 +93,7 @@ class I420VideoSource : public VideoSource {

     virtual void FillFrame() {
       // Read a frame from input_file.
  +    if (frame_ != 3)
       if (fread(img_->img_data, raw_sz_, 1, input_file_) == 0) {
         limit_ = frame_;
       }

This forces the frame that the resolution changes on to be coded
with no motion, only scaling, and improves the quality of the
result.
