vp8: Fix to multi-res-encoder for skipping streams.
For the vp8 simulcast/multi-res-encoder:
Add flags to keep track of the disabling/skipping of
streams for the multi-res-encoder. And if the lower spatial
stream is skipped for a given stream, disable the motion
vector reuse for that stream.
Also remove the condition of forcing same frame type
across all streams.
This fix allows for the skipping/disabling of the base
or middle layer streams.
Without this applications cannot use the vpx_codec_control macro
for VP9_SET_SKIP_LOOP_FILTER. The tests only cover the underscored
version vpx_codec_control_().

vp9: Skip encoding of enhancement layers on the fly.
For SVC: if an enhancement layer (spatial_layer > 0)
has 0 bandwidth, skip/drop the encoding of the layer.
This allows the application to dynamically disable
higher layers for SVC.
Add flag to signal the skip encoding, this is needed
to modify the packing of the superframe when the top
layer is skipped/dropped.
Also moved some updates (current_video_frame counter and
the last_avg_frame_bandwidth) to the postencode_update_drop_frame().
Added datarate unittest for dynamically going from 3 to 2
and then back to 3 spatial layers.

Fix bug in use of zoom metric as part of arf breakout.
The in/out (or zoom metrics) in accumulate_frame_motion_stats()
are in effect a % of the blocks that have a motion vector pointing
either towards or away from the center. As such they are already
normalized in terms of image size and the thresholds against which
these are tested should be image size independent.
In practice a zoom either in or out is an indicator for a shorter group
length so the abs value is more important as a breakout clause.
This patch fixes the threshold test. Clips without noticeable zoom show
no effect but some with strong zooms such as "station" show a big
gain (5-10%). Average psnr-hvs gain on hdres set was 0.292%

Don't force inlining for msvc targets.
INLINE is defined as __forceinline for vs* configs, but is the
normal, compiler-discretion inline for gcc/clang configs. This
makes many functions very large when building for windows targets,
much larger than they are elsewhere.
Use '__inline' as a consistent definition to get consistent function
sizes. Although Visual Studio documentation says that 'inline' is
only available in C+ code. This is probably incorrect, since Visual
Studio 2017 accepts C99 'inline' even when passed /TC. Nevertheless,
this commit uses the recommended '__inline' for consistency.

Bug fix for second reference stats.
Immediately following a key frame the trailing second reference
error in the first pass stats will be based on a reference frame from
the prior key frame group and will thus usually be much larger.
This fix eliminates that effect (which typically triggers a short arf
group immediately after a key frame). It also changes the accounting
for the first frame in each new arf group.
This change gives large gains on a couple of clips that contain mid
sequence key frames (e.g. 6% on 1080P tennis). Overall there was
a net gain in PSNR and PSNR-HVS ~(0.05- 0.4%) and mixed results for

the lower spatial layer is an averaging filter (nonzero phase),
we allow for subpel motion on the spatial (golden) reference to
compensate for the shift. This is done by forcing the testing of
nonzero motion mode to compensate for spatial downsampling shift.
Improvement for cases where the downsampling is averaging filter.
In the current code this is only done for generating
