This patch moves the scattered updates to the mb skip state
(mode_info_context->mbmi.mb_skip_coeff) to vp8_tokenize_mb. Recent
changes to the quantizer exposed a bug where if a macroblock
could be coded as a skip but isn't, the encoder would run the
loopfilter but the decoder wouldn't, causing a reference buffer
mismatch.
The loopfilter is controlled by a flag called dc_diff. The decoder
looks at the number of decoded coefficients when setting this flag.
The encoder sets this flag based on the skip state, since any
skippable macroblock should be transmitted as a skip. The coefficient
optimization pass (vp8_optimize_b()) could change the coefficients
such that a block that was not a skip becomes one. The encoder was
not updating the skip state in this situation for intra coded blocks.
The underlying issue predates it, but this bug was recently triggered
by enabling trellis quantization on the Y2 block in commit dcd29e3,
and by changing the quantizer range control in commit 305be4e.

These functions should never change their input, and there's no
reason not to declare that.
This allows them to be passed static const data.

There is currently no inexact version of this function, so do not
even compile it without EXACT_QUANT.
This will prevent someone from inadvertently trying to use it without
the proper EXACT_QUANT setup.

This is just eliminating some cruft.
Although a number of variables are declared only when INTRARDOPT
is defined, they are used elsewhere without that protection, and
no longer just for intra RDO.
The intra_rd_opt flag was hard-coded to 1 and never checked.

An earlier automatic transform changed eg '\nOptions' to '\n_options'

As the zbin and rounding constants are normalized, rounding effectively
does the zbinning, therefore the zbin operation can be removed. In
addition, the memset on the two arrays are no longer necessary.

yasm has to be preferred as currently nasm produces marginally less
efficient code (longer opcodes). Filed for nasm as:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=106208&aid=3037462&group_id=6208
OTOH package should be built always the same, no matter which additional
packages are / are not present on the system. As the package should be
built with nasm (as yasm may not be available) we should not use yasm
even if it is possibly available.
nasm >= approx. 2.09 is required for the nasm compilation as the former
versions had a section alignment bug.
Provide nasm compatibility. No binary change by this patch with yasm on
{x86_64,i686}-fedora13-linux-gnu. Few longer opcodes with nasm on

nasm just does not accept any size parameter for movhps:

Some parts of libvpx already use MMWORD for movhps and MMWORD is
defined-out so it is compatible both with yasm and nasm.

nasm requires the instruction length (movd/movq) to match to its
parameters. I find it more clear to really use 64bit instructions when
we use 64bit registers in the assembly.

This code adjust the impact of the amount and speed of motion
on GF and KF boost.
Sections with lots of slow motion will tend to have a
somewhat bigger boost and sections with fast motion may
have less.
There is a knock on effect to the selection of the active
quantizer range.
This will likely require further tuning but helps with a couple
of particularly bad edge cases.

Experimented with different value for Y2_RD_MULT ranging f[1, 32],

4 works out best among all values, providing overall 0.1% coding

Loopfilter deltas are initialized to zero on keyframes in the decoder.
The values then persist from the previous frame unless an update bit
is set in the bitstream. This data is not included in the entropy
data saved by the 'refresh entropy' bit in the bitstream, so it is
effectively an additional contextual element beyond the 3 ref-frames
and the entropy data.
The encoder was treating this delta update bit as update-if-nonzero,
meaning that the value would be refreshed even if it hadn't changed,
and more significantly, if the correct value for the delta changed
to zero, the update wouldn't be sent, and the decoder would preserve
the last (presumably non-zero) value.
This patch updates the encoder to send an update only if the value
has changed from the previously transmitted value. It also forces the
value to be transmitted in error resilient mode, to account for lost
context in the event of lost frames.

Modified AltRef temporal filter to adapt filter length based
on macroblock coding modes selected during first-pass
encode.
Also added sub-pixel motion compensation to the AltRef
filter.
this was excluding all .asm files when it should have just been .asm
files in the top level directory and .asm.s files lower down. also be
more restrictive on some other items, and run the whole thing through
sort to keep it organized

The existing code applied a 6-tap filter with 0's on either end.
We're already paying the branch penalty to avoid computing the two
extra columns needed as input to this filter.
We might as well save time computing the filter as well.
This reduces the inner loop from 21 instructions to 16, the number
of loads per iteration from 4 to 1, and the number of multiplies
from 7 to 4.
The gain in overall decoding performance, however, is small (less
than 1%).
This change also means we now valgrind clean on ARMv6, which is
its real purpose.
The errors reported here were valgrind's fault (it does not detect
that 0 times an uninitialized value is initialized), but Julian
Seward says it would slow down valgrind considerably to make such
checks.
Speeding up libvpx rather, even by a small amount, seems a much
better idea if only to enable proper valgrind checking of the
rest of the codec.
