vp9: Force hybrid_intra on scene change
For real-time screen content mode: when scene/slide change
is detected and re-encode is decided, force hybrid_intra
mode search if slide change is big and alot of Intra modes
were used. hybrid_intra mode will use rd-based intra mode
search for small blocks.
Overall better PSNR on clip with slide changes, with similar
encoded frame size. Encode time lightly higher on average with
this change.

vp9: Initialize source variance in nonrd-pickmode.
It is already initialized at superblock level, but since
it is computed per coding block, based on some speed features,
better to initialize it in pick_inter.
No change in behavior, as currently the speed features
that enable use of source_variance in pick_inter are fixed
at the frame-level.

vp9-svc: Intra-only frame for spatial layers.
Use case is for layered (SVC) coding to allow higher
resolution layers to continue decoding with temporal references,
while base spatial layer is intra-only frame.
Made encoder changes to real-time path for encoding intra-only
frame. The intra-only frame will be followed by the overlay/copy
frame (with both packed in the same superframe).
Use existing control to enable intra_only frame.
Intra only is only applied to base spatial layer, and only
allowed under fixed/non-flexible SVC mode, and only for
1 < number_spatial_layers < 4.
Added svc datarate unittest for inserting intra_only frame
as sync frame. Added svc end to end tests to check mismatch.

Enhanced partition experiment.
This patch relates to motion artifacts as described in Issue 73484098
The aim of this patch is to promote the use of smaller partition
sizes in places where some of the sub blocks have very low
spatial complexity and some have much higher complexity.
The patch can have a small impact on encode speed, but much
less than alternative approaches such as lowering the rd thresholds
that limit the partition search when distortion is low.
The patch also applies a similar sub block strategy for AQ1.
