Also some further simplification following removal
of top node code.

There is an issue in regards to the shared file vp8cx.h
in regard to the roi_map as this interface assumes that
there are only 4 segments. I have left the value here as
4 for now meaning that the roi_map interface is broken
for VP9.

Note that this change would have been easier if I hadn't
had to search for hard wire instances of the number 4
and <= 3.

Lookup the data per-plane from the MACROBLOCK struct.

This commit moves the coeff storage from the MACROBLOCK struct to its
per-plane part. The next commit will remove the coeff member from the
BLOCK structure so that it is consistently accessed per-plane.

Also refactors vp9_sb_block_error_c and vp9_sb_uv_block_error_c to be
variable subsampling aware.

This commit enables rectangular block prediction of compound
inter-intra mode. It combines the mb/sb32/sb64 prediction functions
into a unified version with configurable block width and height.
This fixes the enc/dec mismatch of the codebase when
comp-interintra-pred is enabled.

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.

use macroblock coding (over superblock coding). Derf gains +0.15%.

Merge various super_block_yrd and super_block_uvrd versions into one
common function that works for all sizes. Make transform size selection
size-agnostic also. This fixes a slight bug in the intra UV superblock
code where it used the wrong transform size for txsz > 8x8, and stores
the txsz selection for superblocks properly (instead of forgetting it).
Lastly, it removes the trellis search that was done for 16x16 intra
predictors, since trellis is relatively expensive and should thus only
be done after RD mode selection.

Gives basically identical results on derf (+0.009%).

The patch adds the flexibility to use standard EOB based coding
on smaller block sizes and nzc based coding on larger blocksizes.
The tx-sizes that use nzc based coding and those that use EOB based
coding are controlled by a function get_nzc_used().
By default, this function uses nzc based coding for 16x16 and 32x32
transform blocks, which seem to bridge the performance gap
substantially.

All sets are now lower by 0.5% to 0.7%, as opposed to ~1.8% before.

Adds an experiment to use a weighted prediction of two INTER
predictors, where the weight is one of (1/4, 3/4), (3/8, 5/8),
(1/2, 1/2), (5/8, 3/8) or (3/4, 1/4), and is chosen implicitly
based on consistency of the predictors to the already
reconstructed pixels to the top and left of the current macroblock
or superblock.

Currently the weighting is not applied to SPLITMV modes, which
default to the usual (1/2, 1/2) weighting. However the code is in
place controlled by a macro. The same weighting is used for Y and
UV components, where the weight is derived from analyzing the Y
component only.

Results (over compound inter-intra experiment)
derf: +0.18%
yt: +0.34%
hd: +0.49%
stdhd: +0.23%

The experiment suggests bigger benefit for explicitly signaled weights.

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.

Replaces the default tables for single coefficient magnitudes with
those obtained from an appropriate distribution. The EOB node
is left unchanged. The model is represeted as a 256-size codebook
where the index corresponds to the probability of the Zero or the
One node. Two variations are implemented corresponding to whether
the Zero node or the One-node is used as the peg. The main advantage
is that the default prob tables will become considerably smaller and
manageable. Besides there is substantially less risk of over-fitting
for a training set.

Various distributions are tried and the one that gives the best
results is the family of Generalized Gaussian distributions with
shape parameter 0.75. The results are within about 0.2% of fully
trained tables for the Zero peg variant, and within 0.1% of the
One peg variant.

The forward updates are optionally (controlled by a macro)
model-based, i.e. restricted to only convey probabilities from the
codebook. Backward updates can also be optionally (controlled by
another macro) model-based, but is turned off by default. Currently
model-based forward updates work about the same as unconstrained
updates, but there is a drop in performance with backward-updates
being model based.

The model based approach also allows the probabilities for the key
frames to be adjusted from the defaults based on the base_qindex of
the frame. Currently the adjustment function is a placeholder that
adjusts the prob of EOB and Zero node from the nominal one at higher
quality (lower qindex) or lower quality (higher qindex) ends of the
range. The rest of the probabilities are then derived based on the
model from the adjusted prob of zero.
