    Refactors the switchable filter search in the rd loop to
    improve encode speed.
    
    Uses a piecewise approximation to a closed form expression to estimate
    rd cost for a Laplacian source with a given variance and quantization
    step-size.
    
    About 40% encode time reduction is achieved.
    
    Results (on a feb 12 baseline) show a slight drop:
    
    derf: -0.019%
    yt: +0.010%
    std-hd: -0.162%
    hd: -0.050%
