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 commit added a new command line option --test-decode to vpxenc.
The option enables encoder to decode compressed frames and test recon
buffers from the decode against those from encode for mismatch.

There are a few limitations on this option currently, one of them
being the match test is not done on a number of lagged frames at
the end of an encoding.

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

https://gerrit.chromium.org/gerrit/#change,17319 fixes cost estimating
to take skip_eob into account. No quality difference seen on derf set
tests, but about .4% gain on STD_HD set.

This gives a modest gain on derf overall, although at low bitrates the
cost is still too high, so this can be improved further.

The commit changed to compute UV intra RD estimates for 4x4 and 8x8
separately to be used in mode decision for MB modes associated with
the appropriate transform size respectively. Now finally after many
other changes related 8x8 quantizer zbin boost and zbin_mode_boost,
this change overall helps the HD(with 8x8) by around ~.13%.
(avg .13%  glb .13% ssim .17%)

The commit also has a few changes for eliminating compiler warnings.

The commit fixed a problem where 8x8 regular quantizer was using the
4x4 zbinboost lookup table that only has 16 entries at each Q. The
commit assigned a uniform zbin boost value for all cases that there
are more than 16 consective zeros. The change only affects MBs using
8x8 transform. The fix has a slightly positive impact on quality.

This is the first patch for refactoring of the code related to
high-precision mv, so that 1/4 and 1/8 pel motion vectors can
co-exist in the same bit-stream by use of a frame level flag.
The current patch works fine for only use of 1/4th and
only use of 1/8th pel mv, but there are some issues with the
mode switching in between. Subsequent patches on this change Id
will fix the remaining issues.

Patch 2: Adds fixes to make sure that multiple mv precisions can
co-exist in the bit-stream. Frame level switching has been tested
to work correctly.

Patch 3: Fixes lines exceeding 80 char

The "update" variable was used as a flag in coef_prob update dry run
that tests if a frame should encodes update at all. The wrong init
value forced the update happening always. fixing this has a minor
