Adding error-concealment to the decoder.
The error-concealer is plugged in after any motion vectors have been
decoded. It tries to estimate any missing motion vectors from the
motion vectors of the previous frame. Intra blocks with missing
residual are replaced with inter blocks with estimated motion vectors.
This feature was developed in a separate sandbox
(sandbox/holmer/error-concealment).

Restructure of activity masking code.
This commit restructures the mb activity masking code
to better facilitate experimentation using different metrics
etc. and also allows for adjustment of the zero bin either
for encode only or both the encode and mode selection
stages
It also uses information from the current frame rather than
the previous frame and the default strength has been
reduced.

Use diamond search to replace full search in full-pixel refining search
In NEWMV mode, currently, full search is used as the refining search
after n-step search. By replacing it with an iterative diamond search
of radius 1 largely reduced the computation complexity, but still
maintained the same encoding quality since the refining search is
done for every macroblock instead of only a small precentage of
macroblocks while using full search.
Tests on the test set showed a 3.4% encoding speed increase with none
psnr & ssim loss.

Fix semaphore emulation on Windows
The existing emulation of posix semaphores on Windows uses SetEvent()
and WaitForSingleObject(), which implements a binary semaphore, not a
counting semaphore as implemented by posix. This causes deadlock when
used with the expected posix semantics. Instead, this patch uses the
CreateSemaphore() and ReleaseSemaphore() calls (introduced in Windows
2000) which have the expected behavior.
This patch also reverts commit eb16f00, which split a semaphore that
was being used with counting semantics into two binary semaphores.
That commit is unnecessary with corrected emulation.

Limit size of initial keyframe in one-pass.
Rather than using a default size of 1/2 or 3/2 seconds for the first

This will likely undergo further refinement as size limits on key
frames are currently under discussion on codec-devel@, but this gives
much better behavior for small buffer sizes as a starting point.
