Fix bugs in convolution filter optimization
- Fix the over-writing bug in horizontal filtering as width = 2.
- Fix 10-tap vertical filtering which no longer reads one row of
pixel above the block.
- Fix 10-tap filter zero padding.
- Encoder speed slow down ~4.0%, compared to, 81ad953 Convolution vertical filter SSSE3 optimization

Make recursive txfm partitioning use uniform quantizer
Replace the expanded zero-bin quantizer with uniform quantizer in
the recursive transform block partitioning scheme. This improves
the compression performance by 0.4% for lowres.

Make drl support bi-directional reference frames
This commit refactors the reference frame structure used in the
dynamic motion vector referencing system, and makes it support
the bi-directional reference frames. This resolves unit test
failure (enc/dec mismatch) when both are turned on.
The compression performance (ref-mv + ext-refs) is improved by
0.2% for lowres.

Merge bi-predictive frames to EXT_REFS
This patch removed the experiment of BIDIR_PRED and merged the feature
into the experiment of EXT_REFS:
(1) Each frame now has up to 6 reference frames, namely
LAST_FRAME, LAST2_FRAME, LAST3_FRAME, GOLDEN_FRAME, (forward) and
BWDREF_FRAME, ALTREF_FRAME (backward);
LAST4_FRAME has been removed;
(2) First pass still keeps the 8 updates:
KF_UPDATE, LF_UPDATE, GF_UPDATE, ARF_UPDATE, OVERLAY_UPDATE, and
BRF_UPDATE, LAST_BIPRED_UPDATE, BI_PRED_UPDATE;
(3) show_existing_frame==1 is supported in the experiment of EXT_REFS;
(4) New encoding modes are added for both single-ref and compound cases,
through the use of the 2 extra forward references (LAST2 & LAST3)
and the 1 extra backward reference (BWDREF).

Make variance based partitioning compatible with SEG_LVL_SKIP
Inter blocks that have SEG_LVL_SKIP active must be at least 8x8 in
size for bitstream conformance (see read_inter_block_mode_info in
decodemv.c).
This patch makes the variance based partitioning scheme stop at 8x8
blocks in inter frames. This satisfies the SEG_LVL_SKIP constraint
and is more in line with the original implementation of this function
(before it got extended for 128x128 superblocks).

Disable the unit test of ArfFreq for BIDIR_PRED
The test in arf_freq assumes any no-show frame as ALTREF_FRAME and
then calculate the minimum run between two consecutive ALTREF_FRAME's
based on this assumption. As BWDREF_FRAME is also a no-show frame and
the minimum run between two consecutive BWDREF_FRAME's may vary
between 1 and any arbitrary positive number as long as it does not
exceed the golden frame group interval, this test does not apply to
the experiment of BIDIR_PRED.

Use correct size load in vpx_avg_4x4_sse2.
The old version used 64 bit loads, and then ignored the top half
of the result. This can cause asan failures if we read past the end
of a buffer. Switched to using 32 bit loads instead.
