1. block types
There are only three types of blocks for 8x8 transformed MBs, i.e. Y
block with DC does not exist for 8x8 transformed MBs as all MB using
8x8 transform have 2nd order haar transform. This commit introduced
a new macro BLOCK_TYPES_8X8 to reflect such fact.
2. context counters
This commit also fixed the mixed of context_counters between 4x4 and
8x8 transformed MBs. The mixed use of the counters leads me to think
the existing the context probabilities were not properly generated
from 8x8 transformed MBs.
3. redundant collecting in recoding
The commit also corrected the code that accumulates entropy stats by
making sure stats only collected for final packing, not during the
recode loop

This patch expands the set of prev contexts used for video coding
from 3 to 4.
There is a small improvement of the order of 0.08% for derf and
0.15% on the HD set. The tests were rerun after the various merges
last week. There are two columns in each test - the first are the
results with the mbskip change, and the second with expanded contexts
added on top of that.
Derf:

HD:

This commit adjusted slightly the 4x4 coefficents band definition to
better classify coefficients with similar distributions and usages.
It helps derf set about .1%, it is alos slightly positive for std-hd
set, where 4x4 blocks are used less frequently.
The commit also removed a const array not in use.

The ARNR filter uses a motion compensated temporal filter,
but the motion estimation implementation accounts for the
cost of the mv in its decision making process. The ARNR
filter uses a dummy cost table initialized to 0 as a way
to ignore the mv costs (which are irrelevant to the filter).
This CL modifies the ARNR filter implementation to so that
the mv costing is ignored without the requirement for
dummy tables.

Adds a speed feature to conduct a brute force search among a set of
available interpolation filters for the best one in an RD sense.
There is a gain of 0.4% on derf, 1.0% on Std-HD.
Patch 2: A macro added to determine if the encoder state is reset
for each new filter tried.
Patch 3: rebase, also fixes a bug (decodframe.c) introduced by a
couple of missing function pointer assignements.
Patch 4: rebase.

This commit merge the QI mode experiment. As the experiment affects
the encoding of intra coding modes on key frame only, the overall
effect of the experiment on encoding tests is insignificant.

Adds differential encoding of prob updates using a subexponential
code centered around the previous probability value.
Also searches for the most cost-effective update, and breaks
up the coefficient updates into smaller groups.

This commit changed to enable the usage 8x8 transform for all frame
type, all resolution and all quantizer range. This has an overall
benefit .2% to .3% in term of compression, but more importantly,
the difficult clips benefits much more, up to 2% to 3% on clips
like football, harbour and so on.
We observed some weird humps on very high end on a couple of youtube
clips, but have determined the underly cause was the aggressive zbin
having an effect of lowering rate with lower quality, which have
an impact on slide show clips around 60DB.
The commit does not change the association between prediction mode
and transform size.

With the NEWENTROPY experiment enabled encoding certain clips
produced invlid bitstreams, or files that had a high degree
of artefacts.
This was the results of pointers in MACROBLOCKD not being
setup correctly (mode_info_context and prev_mode_info_context).

Turning off the interpolation filter selection based on edge
proportion. This heuristics has not been working as well as
expected and I have started a more rigorous investigation into
this. We can turn this off for now since it is unnecessarily
slowing things down.
Rebase.

This commit tries to address an issue related to the oddity shown on
HD _mobcal clip, where some rather ugly blocks shown in the second
frame at low-mid bit rates if the third frame is not made a key frame
by he encoder. The fixes include: 1) made calls to sad_16x16 to be
consistent with function prototype. 2) remove the error bias to intra
and golden in mbgraph search. 3) changed the error accumulation on
inter_segment encoding to avoid potential out-of-range. 1) has no
effect on encoding results.
Encoding test show that the overall effect of the commit helps about
.2%(HD) to .3%(cif)

The commit removed a limit on key frame detection, which caused a big
drop in all metric measurements for standard HD clip such as _mobcal.
This single change helps two standard HD clips by a huge amount, which
help the overall std-hd set by 2.4% (glb psnr), 0.9% (avg_psnr), 2.1%
(vpxssim).

Some adjustments to zbin for t8x8.
Changes to rules for sizing forced key frames.
Some extra stats output in tmp.stt.
Approximate gain on YT-hd set 0.5%
There are still issues in sizing key frames and gf/arf frames
when the image is largely static. These in part relate to
problems with cost estimates in the recode loop.

This is the first patch to add superblock (32x32) coding
order capabilities. It does not yet do any mode selection
at the SB level, that will follow in a further patch.
This patch encodes rows of SBs rather than
MBs, each SB contains 2x2 MBs.
Two intra prediction modes have been disabled since they
require reconstructed data for the above-right MB which
may not have been encoded yet (e.g. for the bottom right
MB in each SB).
Results on the one test clip I have tried (720p GIPS clip)
suggest that it is somewhere around 0.2dB worse than the
baseline version, so there may be bugs.
It has been tested with no experiments enabled and with
the following 3 experiments enabled:
--enable-enhanced_interp
--enable-high_precision_mv
--enable-sixteenth_subpel_uv
in each case the decode buffer matches the recon buffer
(using "cmp" to compare the dumped/decoded frames).
Note: Testing these experiments individually created
errors.
Some problems were found with other experiments but it
is unclear what state these experiments are in:
--enable-comp_intra_pred
--enable-newentropy
--enable-uvintra
This code has not been extensively tested yet, so there
is every likelihood that further bugs remain. I also
intend to do some code cleanup & refactoring in tandem
with the next patch that adds the 32x32 modes.

Found this bug while tracking down some anomalies in my experiments.
Since vp8_cost_one and vp8_cost_zero return unsigned int, the
bit shift by 8 will be incorrect if the value is negative.
I am cautiously optimistic that this fix will make the prob
updates more correct and somewhat improve results across the board.
But the update probabilities will need to be retuned I think.
Patch 2: Adding more of the same fixes using a macro.

When ac_yquant>171, a key frame is enabled to use 8x8 transform. In
such case, MBs with DC_PRED or TM_PRED are selected to use T8x8. This
change helped the full STD-HD set by ~.1% or so, which is reasonable
considering how often key frame occurs in these encodings.

Deprecate fast quant and strict_quant code.
Small effect on quality as fast was used in first pass but the
effect is basically neutral across the derf set.
The rationale here is to reduce the number of code paths for
now to make experimentation easier. Optimized and fast code
options can be re-introduced later along with other encode
speed options.

Various refactoring to make the subpel motion compensation
filters switchable by a frame level field.
Two types of 8-tap filters are supported in addition to the existing
bilinar and sixtap filters. One is the default 8-tap and the
other has a sharper cut-off for use with frames with substantial
edge content.
Patch 2: Added a preliminary strategy for filter selection based on
edginess detecton. Also includes some filter changes.

The commit added a clamp to the 2nd motion vector used in compound
prediction to insure mv within UMV borders. The clamp is similar to
that of the first motion vector except that No SPLITMV is ever used
for the 2nd motion vector.

The recoding loop save and restore frame coding context for recodes.
However in recoding of key frames, some of the coding context saved
was stale from last encoded inter frame. The save/restore sometimes
overwrites the re-inintialized coding context with saved context
from last frame, resulting in encoder/decoder mismatch
