This commit breaks the overly broad header files into more
targeted and smaller ones, to help better structure the system
layout.

Adds various high bitdepth quantization functions.

This function is not effectively used, hence removed.

VP9_COMMON is the right place to segmentatation struct because it has
global segmentation parameters, not something specific to macroblock
processing.

Change-Id: Ib9ada0c06c253996eb3b5f6cccf6a323fbbba708

Moving common code from encoder and decoder to vp9_get_qindex function.
Also moving quant-related constants from vp9_onyxc_int.h to
vp9_quant_common.h.

Lower case variable names, code simplification by using already defined
clamp and read_le16 functions.

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).

This is a code snapshot of experimental work currently ongoing for a
next-generation codec.

The codebase has been cut down considerably from the libvpx baseline.
For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control
and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading,
error resilience, partitions and various other features.  This is in
part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but
also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream
will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation
constrained by past work.

Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments
using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the
code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that
they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments,
we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in.

Current changes include:
* Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it
  will likely be increased).
* Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to
  be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode
  and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and
  transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set
  is very fluid.
* Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used
  in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames.
* Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors
  to create a new predictor).
* 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors.
* Loop filter modifications.
* Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and
  updates are handled.
* Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements.

There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the
near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the
prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger
block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding
options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be
able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community
contributions.

Please be warned that, at this stage, the codebase is currently slower
than VP8 stable branch as most new code has not been optimized, and
even the 'C' has been deliberately written to be simple and obvious,
not fast.

The following graphs have the initial test results, numbers in the
tables measure the compression improvement in terms of percentage. The
build has  the following optional experiments configured:
--enable-experimental --enable-enhanced_interp --enable-uvintra
--enable-high_precision_mv --enable-sixteenth_subpel_uv

Merge the extended Q experiment as indicated by the

Change-Id: I02d9e654fff9998cc7e9e2f1f5cd838dad8fb431

Fixed some further QIndex related issues and replaced some tables
(eg zbin and rounding)

Also Added function (currently disabled by default) to populate the
main AC and DC quantizer tables. Using the original AC range the
resulting computed DC values give behavior broadly comparable
on the DERF set. That is not to say that the equations will hold good
over a more extended range. The purpose of this code is to make it
easier to experiment with further alterations to the Q range and distribution
of Q values plus the relative weights given to AC and DC.

The function find_fp_qindex() ensures that changes to the Q tables
are reflected in the value passed in to the first pass code.

Slight experimental adjustment to static segment Q offset.

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

Fixes issue #97.

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