For real time speed 7, once encode breakout is on(i.e. encoding
setting --static-thresh=1), a proper encode breakout threshold
is set to speed up the encoder.
Set --static-thresh=1, RTC set borg test showed a slight overall
psnr loss of 0.162%, but ssim gain of 0.287%. The average speedup
on RTC set is 6%, and for some clips, the speedup can be 10+%.

Before encoding a frame, calculate and store each 16x16 block's
variance of source difference between last and current frame.
Find partitioning threshold T for the frame from its variance
histogram, and then use T to make partition decisions.
Comparing with fixed 16x16 partitioning, rtc set test showed an
overall psnr gain of 3.242%, and ssim gain of 3.751%. The best
psnr gain is 8.653%.
The overall encoding speed didn't change much. It got faster for
some clips(for example, 12% speedup for vidyo1), and a little
slower for others.
Also, a minor modification was made in datarate unit test.

This patch allows the encoder to skip the partition search for the
frame if it is an inter frame and only zero motion vectors have
been detected in the first pass. The partition size is directly
assigned according to the difference variance.
Borg tests show overall little performance changes in term of PSNR
(derf -0.027%, yt 0.152%, hd 0.078%, stdhd 0%). The worst case of
PSNR loss is -0.514% from yt. The best PSNR gain is 4.293% from yt.

This commit enables a fast reference motion vector search scheme.
It checks the nearest top and left neighboring blocks to decide the

the check for NEARMV.

This patch implements a mechanism for inserting a second

It is currently disabled by default using the flag multi_arf_enabled.
Results are currently down somewhat in initial testing if

The encoder currently allocates frame buffers before
it establishes what the chroma sub-sampling factor is,
always allocating based on the 4:4:4 format.
This patch detects the chroma format as early as
possible allowing the encoder to allocate buffers of

Future patches will change the encoder to allocate
frame buffers on demand to further reduce the memory
profile of the encoder and rationalize the buffer
management in the encoder and decoder.

A superframe is a bunch of frames that bundled as one frame. It is mostly
used to combine one or more non-displayable frames and one displayable frame.
For frame parallel decoding, libvpx decoder will only support decoding one
normal frame or a super frame with superframe index.
If an application pass a superframe without superframe index or a chunk
of displayable frames without superframe index to libvpx decoder, libvpx
will not decode it in frame parallel mode. But libvpx decoder still could
decode it in serial mode.

This breaks the profile 1 bitstream.

The current decoding scheme will decrease the reference count
of the output frame when finish decoding. Then the application
could copy the frame from the decoder buffer to application buffer.
In frame-parallel decoding, a decoded frame will not be outputted
until several frames later which depends on thread numbers. So
the decoded frame's reference count should be decreased only
after application finish copying the frame out. But due to the
limitation of vpx_codec_get_frame, decoder could not know when
application finish decoding. So use a index last_show_frame to
release the last output frame's reference count.
