The change can be temporarily reverted by setting ALLOW_128X32_BLOCKS
to 1 (for easy "is this better?" testing: we'll get rid of the option
once it's clear what we're doing).

Since this means we have to modify the "num_partition_types"
calculation in functions like read_partition, we move it into a helper
function called partition_cdf_length(). Doing this makes the bodies of
read_partition and write_partition somewhat simpler than they were.

At eob-1, coefficient must be non-zero. As such, this CL changes the
alphabet for base levels at eob-1 from size 4 to size 3. Minor
performance improvement is observed. In addition, changes in 33462 made
by Ola Hugosson were also incorporated.

Now with trained initial probability distributions.

Remove the previous experiment and now use the same name for a
simpler experiment that only enables 4:1 transforms for 4:1
partitions when ext_partition_types is on, and that which was
previously enabled with the USE_RECT_TX_EXT macro.

The br_cdf and lps_cdf with a new 4-state symbol br_cdf.
The br symbol indicates whether the level is k, k+1, k+2 or >k+2
In the latter case, a new br symbol is read. Up to 4 br symbols are
read which will reach level 14 at most. Levels greater than 14 are
golomb coded.

The adapted symbol count is reduced further by this commit.
E.g. for the I-frame of ducks_take_off at cq=12, the number of adapted symbols
is reduced from 4.27M to 3.85M. About 10% reduction.

Gains seems about neutral on a limitied subset.

This experiment modifies lv_map to make use of multi symbol.

Replace the nz_map and coeff_base binary CDF with a new multi-symbol
CDF of size 4. The new base_cdf indicates for each coeff if the level
is 0, 1, 2 or >2. Two new special contexts are added to be used for the
last coefficient (the EOB coeff). For the EOB coefficient we already know
that it is non-zero. We use one context for DC EOB and one for AC EOB
(this can potentially be refined more).

The new symbol is read/written by special bitreader/bitwriter functions.
Those functions reduce the probability precision from 15bit to 9bit before
the invocation of the arithmetic coding engine.

The adapted symbol count is significantly reduced by this experiment.
E.g. for the I-frame of ducks_take_off at cq=12, the number of adapted symbols
is reduced from 6.7M to 4.3M.

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.
