Adjustment on limiting cyclic refresh on steady blocks.

Adjust the qp threshold and consec_zeromv threshold for
limiting cyclic refresh. Also increase the refresh period
when the limit amount is significant, and some code-cleanup.

Small gain in PSNR/SSIM metrics: ~0.25/0.3 gain on RTC set, speed 7.

Change only affects non-screen content.
