When allow_partition_search_skip  is set the two pass code
can optionally skip the partition search in the rd loop if the image
appears static (based on selection of 0,0 motion).

Unfortunately 0,0 motion does not necessarily mean that there are
no meaningful changes or that motion or intra modes will not be selected
in the second pass.

Disabling "allow_partition_search_skip" may hurt the encode speed a little
for a small number of clips but can have a big impact on compression.
The most notable example of this in our test sets is "bridge_close_cif"
where this change gives a gains of 18%, 12% and 16% in opsnr, ssim and
psnr-hvs.

The decay accumulator clause covers similar ground to the
new clause that tests the accumulated second reference error
so it has been removed to reduce complexity.

Change-Id: I4ec1cce32d72bd4ee463ad7def2831a68447d525

Add a clause to the breakout test for alt ref groups that
examines the size of the accumulated second reference
frame error compared to the cost of intra coding.

This clause causes a reduction in the average group length for many
clips. Alongside the change to the group length the minimum
boost is increased.

On balance the results are positive for psnr and psnr-hvs
but is negative for ssim/fast ssim for the smaller image formats.

Strong gains on some harder clips (eg ducks take off (midres) ~20%,
husky (lowres) 6-17%. Most of the negative cases are lower motion
clips. Subsequent patch hopefully will help with those.

For new VP9 only content type adjust  the rate distortion and ARF
filter based on the relative spatial variance of the source and
reconstruction.

In regards to the RD loop the method favors modes where the
reconstruction variance is similar to the source variance. However it
is currently only applied to regions where the source variance is quite
low.

For very low variance blocks it applies a further bias against intra
coding and large prediction block sizes (the later in particular limit
the usefulness of the loop filter).

The final part of this change is to lower the strength of the ARF
filter for blocks where the source has very low spatial variance, to
encourage some low amplitude texture or noise to pass through
the filter.

This change improves the retention of film grain and fine noise /
texture in spatially flat regions, but as expected causes a significant
drop in PSNR on many clips. This is to be expected because similar
but misaligned noise or texture will give a lower PSNR than a flat
noise free reconstruction. However, it is worth noting that most clips
show a strong gain in FAST SSIM.

The features are enabled on the vpxenc command line by setting
--tune-content=film.

VPX_ENCODER_ABI_VERSION bumped for this change and cvbr.

For a chosen interval "i" the existing arf boost calculation examined frames
+/- (i-1) frames from the current location in the second pass.

This change checks to make sure that the forward search does not extend
beyond the next key frame in the event that the distance to the next key
frame is < (i - 1).

Small metrics gains on all our  test sets but these are localized to a few clips
(e.g. midres set psnr-hvs sintel -2.59% but overall average was only -0.185%)

The new test will run a SVC bitstream which has non ref frames.
It checks the number of buffer acquired and released to make sure all
external frame buffers are released.

Add a new test bitstream:

which has 400 frames in total, and 1 spatial layer and 2 temporal layers.
There is one non ref frame every other frame.

Change-Id: I0515336fd9809a9e1fceba90e4dce53dabaf53a5

Added command line control of Corpus VBR.

The new corpus vbr mode is a variant of standard
VBR (end-usage=0) where the complexity distribution
mid point is passed in rather than calculated for a specific
clip or chunk.

The new variant is enabled by setting a new command line
parameter --corpus-complexity to a zero value. Omitting
this parameter or setting it to 0 will cause the codec to use
standard vbr mode.

The correct value for a given corpus needs to be derived
experimentally using a training set such that the average
rate for the corpus is close to the target value.

For example our using our low res test set with upper and lower
vbr limits of 50%-150% and a corpus complexity value of 650
gives a similar average data rate across the set to using standard
vbr. However, with the corpus mode easier clips will be allocated
fewer bits and harder clips more bits rather than having the same
rate target for all.
