This change added a motion search skipping mechanism similar
to what we did in second pass. For a macroblock that is very
similar to the macroblock at same location on last frame,
we can set its mv to be zero, and skip motion search. This
improves first-pass performance for slide shows and video
conferencing clips with a slight PSNR loss.

When active map is specified and the current frame is not a key frame,
golden frame nor a altref frame then copy only those active regions.
This significantly reduces encoding time by as much as 19% on the test
system where realtime encoding is used. This is particularly useful
when the frame size is large (e.g. 2560x1600) and there's only a few
action macroblocks.

This patch cleans up the source buffer storage and copy mechanism to
allow access through a standard push/pop/peek interface. This approach
also avoids an extra copy in the case where the source is not a
multiple of 16, fixing issue #102.
