Updates the vp9_pattern_search function to return integer one-away
neighbors' sad values, for subsequent use in speeding up the
sub-pel search. Also, removes code for the do_refine option
which is not being used currently.
Updates the integer and subpel functions to pass in a 5-element
sad list for output or input.

A new pruned sub-pel search algorithm is implemented that uses
the sad returned from the integer pel search. But it is not
deployed yet.

This commit re-work the operation flow related to prediction
residual generation and the rate-distortion modeling. It saves one
call for model_rd_for_sb.

The value of switchable rate has been stored in a local variable.
This change skips the second call to vp9_get_switchable_rate() by
reusing the local variable.

Check the mode and motion vector cost. If it is already above
the existing best rate-distortion cost, skip the rest check process
on this mode.

This commit makes the rate distortion modeling run in the unit of
maximum transform block size. No compression/speed change observed.
It is for the use of later fast forward transform purpose.

This commit addes a new strategy to reduce the search for optimal
interpolation filter type. The encoder counts and store how many each
filter type is selected and used for each of the reference frames.
A filter type that is rarely used for all three reference frames is
masked out to avoid computation.

The impact on compression is neglectible:
-0.02% on derf
+0.02% on stdhd

Encoding time is seen to reduce by 2~3%.

- Make $1 input file at all call sites.
- Actually use vpxenc_pipe().
