Extend to 256 Q steps.

This commit extends the number of Q steps to 256 from 128.
The q_trans[] array has been altered to distribute available Q index values
(using the current 64 steps available as input parameters) evenly across the
available range. This is coupled with the fact that each Q step where possible
now equates to a fixed % change in the quantizer. This may want refinement
later especially in terms of the granularity at the high quality end but is a
reasonable starting point.
