When GF group adaptive maxQ is enabled this patch accounts
somewhat for accumulated error in the rate control.
This improves accuracy quite a bit on many clips especially
when there is overshoot.
Examples when the overshoot and undershoot command line
parameters are set to 100:
Hall @ 1200 overshoot is reduced from 67-24%.
Akiyo @ 400 undershoot is reduced from 28%-15%.
Setting a lower value for undershoot or overshoot still
reduces the error further.
Impact on metrics is mixed with some gains in average psnr
but generally a little lower (e.g. 0.5%) on overall and ssim.
The GF group adaptation is still off by default in this patch.
Compared to with the head, enabling this mode now gives
big average psnr gains on the YT sets (e.g. YT_HD >11.2%),
a drop in overall PSNR (YT-HD 3.9%) and a smaller drop or
neutral for SSIM.

Note: This feature is still in development.
Add an option for the encoder to decide the resolution
at which to encode each frame.
Each KF/GF/ARF goup is tested to see if it would be
better encoded at a lower resolution. At present, each
KF/GF/ARF is coded first at full-size and if the coded
size exceeds a threshold (twice target data rate) at
the maximum active Q then the entire group is encoded
at lower resolution.
This feature is enabled in vpxenc by setting:
--resize-allowed=1
In addition, if the vpxenc command line also specifies
valid frame dimensions using:
--resize-width=XXXX & --resize_height=YYYY
then *all* frames will be encoded at this resolution.

In frame parallel decode, libvpx decoder decodes several frames on all
cpus in parallel fashion. If not being flushed, it will only return frame
when all the cpus are busy. If getting flushed, it will return all the
frames in the decoder. Compare with current serial decode mode in which
libvpx decoder is idle between decode calls, libvpx decoder is busy
between decode calls.
Current frame parallel decode will only speed up the decoding for frame
parallel encoded videos. For non frame parallel encoded videos, frame
parallel decode is slower than serial decode due to lack of loopfilter
worker thread.
There are still some known issues that need to be addressed. For example:
decode frame parallel videos with segmentation enabled is not right sometimes.

Currently disabled by default: enabled using
#define GROUP_ADAPTIVE_MAXQ
In this patch the active max Q is adjusted for each GF
group based on the vbr bit allocation and raw first pass
group error.
This will tend to give a lower q for easy sections
and a higher value for very hard sections. As such it is
expected to improve quality in some of the easier
sections where quality issues have been reported.
This change tends to hurt overall psnr but help
average psnr. SSIM also shows a small gain.
Average results for derf, yt, std-hd and yt-hd test sets were
as follows (%change for average psnr, overal psnr and ssim):-
derf +0.291, - 0.252, -0.021
yt +6.466, -1.436, +0.552
std-hd +0.490, +0.014, +0.380

Just before a forced key frame we often get a foreshortened
arf/gf group. In such a case, we do not want to update
rc->last_boosted_qindex, which is used to define the Q range
for the forced key frame itself.
This gives a small average metrics gain for the YT and YT-HD sets
(eg. YT SSIM +0.141%).

This patch modified struct VP9_COMP. Created a struct ThreadData
to include data that need to be copied for each thread. In
multiple thread case, one thread processes one tile. all threads
share one copy of VP9_COMP,
(refer to VP9_COMP *cpi in the code)
but each thread has its own copy of ThreadData,
(refer to ThreadData *td in the code).
Therefore, within the scope of encode_tiles(), both cpi and td
need to be passed as function parameters.
In single thread case, the FRAME_COUNTS pointer in ThreadData
points to "counts" in VP9_COMMON.

The aim of this patch is to apply a positive weighting to
frames that have a significant number of blocks that are
of low spatial complexity and are dark. The rationale behind
this is that artifacts tend to be more visible in such frames.
In this patch the weight is only applied in regard to the distribution
of bits between frames. Hence if all the frames share similar
characteristics (as is the case for most of our short test clips) there
will be little or no net effect.
However, the effect can be seen on some longer form test content.
For example Tears of steel baseline test:
2323.09 Kbit/s opsnr 39.915 ssim 74.729
With this patch:-
2213.34 Kbit/s opsnr 39.963 ssim 74.808
(Sligtly better metrics and about 5% smaller)
The weighting may well need some further tuning along side changes
to the aq modes.

Added code to relax the active maximum Q in response
to extreme local overshoot to reduce bandwidth peaks.
The impact is small in metrics terms, but it this helps reduce
bandwidth spikes and overall overshoot in a number of
clips in our tests sets (especially the YT test set).
In particular this should help prevent very big spikes where a clip
is mainly easy but has a short hard section. In such a case a choice
of maximum Q for the clip as a whole may allow us to hit the overall
target rate but give some extreme spikes. The chunked encoding in YT
mitigates this problem but it can show up where a longer clip is
coded as a single chunk.

The point at which frames are scaled to their
coded dimensions is moved into the re-code loop.
This is in preparation for a further patch that
will add logic into the re-code loop to reduce
the coded frame size if the encoder is struggling
to hit the target data rate at the native frame
size.

Delete gfboost_qadjust() and move Q based adjustment
into calc_frame_boost(). Also remove clamping. Making
the adjustment here means that it influences not just the
boost level but also the selection of the GF/ARF interval.
This change gives a small average gain in PSNR but
larger gains in SSIM, especially for harder std-hd set (1.5%)

We encode a empty invisible frame in front of the base layer frame to
avoid using prev_mi. Since there's a restriction for reference frame
scaling factor, we have to make it smaller and smaller gradually until
its size is 16x16.

This reverts commit 452dc21500a2339ee685cb28efbd2af1b856ea12.
This change has introduced a significant quality regression on content
with forced key frames. (e.g. the YT and yt-hd set). It is most
noticeable in static content where the kf bits dominate. Here, despite
key frames being apparently coded at the same Q, there is a drop in all
metrics of ~20% (e.g clXR and BFa0).

Derf results for example undershoot% / overshoot%:-

PSNR hit -1% SSIM -0.1%
5% / 5% - Mean abs (%rate error) = 2.2%
PSNR hit -3.3% SSIM - 1.1%
Most of the remaining error and most of the quality hit is
at extreme data rates. The adaptation code still has an
exception for material that is in effect static so that we
don't over adjust and over spend on YT slide show type
content.

In model_rd_for_sb function, the spatial domain SSE and variance
are checked to see if transform coefficients are quantized to 0.
Besides that, this patch adds another set of thresholds that are
much more strict. These thresholds are used to conduct a partition
block level check to measure if all its TX blocks are skippable
for YUV planes. If it is true, x->skip is set for this partition
block, and thus its mode search is terminated.
This speeds up the encoding at very low prediction error case,
such as screen sharing application. This patch covers what
rd_encode_breakout_test() does, so that function is removed.
Borg test at speed 3 shows:
For stdhd set, psnr: +0.008%, ssim: +0.014%;
For derf set, psnr: +0.018%, ssim: +0.025%.
No noticeable speed change.

Adjustments to the GF interval choice and minimum boost.
Adjustment to the calculation of 2 pass worst q.
Compared to 09/29 head there is metrics hit on derf of
(-0.123%,-0.191%)
Compared to the September 29 head and a baseline on
September 18 baseline the accuracy of the VBR rate control
measured on the derf set is as follows:-
Mean error % / Mean abs(error %)
Sept 18 baseline (-7.0% / 14.76%)
Sept 29 head (-15.7%, 19.8%)
This check in (-1.5% / 14.4%)
The mean undershoot is reduced slightly but the
worst case overshoot on e.g. harbour/highway is
increased. This will be addressed in a later patch.

mi_grid_* are arrays of pointer to pointer. They save the pointers that point
to the MIs in cm->mi. But they are unnecessary and complicated. The original
goal was to remove MODE_INFO_t copy. But with an extra MODE_INFO_t pointer
inside MODE_INFO_t, same goal could be achieved.
This commit totally removes the mi_grid_* structures. But there are still
many dummy MODE_INFO_t inside cm->mi which are a waste of memory. Next commit
will do on-demand MODE_INFO_t allocation in order to save these memories.
