For real-time mode under cbr, this increases the gain (5-10%)
for speed 5 (none/little change for 6), on vc-clips.

Turns off the DISABLE_RC_LONG_TERM_MEM macro and makes other changes

This commit reduces the frequency of frames using finer quantizer
in non-RD coding flow, and slightly tune up the quantizer resolution
when used. It provides 1.7% compression gains in speed -5 at no speed
difference.

The new tolerance is a little higher than before (especially
for kf/gf/arf) so this change gives an encode speed up
for some clips up for speeds 0-2.

This code/setting was actually not used (since speed features were not set on first frame,
until a recent change) and should be removed.

In CBR mode, the q value for the first frame can be controlled by setting
the target size via the parameters rc_buf_initial_sz (and max_intra_size_pct).

While encoding a frame, its last frame source can be used to give
acurate motion information. This patch prevents last frame to be
overwritten so that it is available during current frame encoding.

The last source is scaled when it is necessary. cpi->Last_Source
points to the last source frame.

This commit optimizes the bit allocation for the non-RD coding flow.
It applies slightly better quantizer to the frames, where all blocks
run a non-RD partition search. Such frames typically have better
rate-distortion trade off, thus improving the reconstruction quality
for next few frames reference at reasonably low increment in rate
cost.

The coding performance for rtc set at speed -5 with error-resilient
tuned on and rate control set as cbr is improved by 19.58%. It improved
the coding speed by about 10% for a portion of local test clips.

This commit adjusted the speed steps in rt mode to make the steps
more evenly spaced on speed and quality, specifically:
1. Merged 3 and 4 into one single step 3 and removed confilicting
features.
2. Move 8, 7, 6, 5 to be 7, 6, 5, 4 repsectively.

Small speed gain for speed 1.

Quality is generally a little up for speed 2.

Speed 3 was similar to speed 4 but now positioned more
evenly between 2 and 4 speed and quality wise.
   (opsnr +5.6% ssim +8.25% across all sets)

Speed 4 is a little slower than before but sizable quality gains.
   (opsnr +3.7% ssim +6.8% across all sets)

The code has been cleaned up a bit so that for each incremental
speed step changes over the previous speed step are applied.
This makes it easier to see what is changing from one setting to
the next.

Allow tx search for ARF and GF helps quality but a little slower.
Setting subpel_iters_per_step to 1 improves encode speed.
Setting sf->mode_skip_start = 10 improves speed.

Initial local results suggest overall impact on quality is neutral
but encode is up to 15% faster.

This commit enables the non-RD mode decision coding flow to
adaptively apply partition search in non-refresh frame, when the
collocated block in previous frame suggests there might be a motion
activity. It refactors the update_state_rt() function to support
buffer swap of mode_info struct, thereby unifying the encoding
stage across various non-RD coding modes.

It provides 5% compression performance gains in speed -6 for rtc
test set, at about 12% speed slow down.

This commit added a speed feature to make the logic of calculating
skip_recode on a block level more explicit. This also enable the
feature to be enabled at speed 5 where the previous logic is too
conservative, help gain back the lost speed for --rt(-5).
