Use previous ARF as GOLDEN frame for the next GOP
This patch uses ARF itself as the GOLDEN frame for the
next gf group instead of replacing it with the overlay
frame. By doing so, bits consumed by the overlay frame
will be reduced.

Increase active best quality linearly
The ARF frames in last few gf intervals, would be

Hence the active best quality for these ARF frames

Fix section intra rating for first ARF interval
The section intra rating used for the frames in the
first ARF interval was based on entire key frame
interval. However, for subsequent ARF intervals it was
based on that ARF interval. This discrepancy is fixed.
Reason for revert:
This has not been reproduced on hardware. There is a strange
libc bug which may account for the behavior on arm because
the environment qemu is using is somewhat old. See discussion
on the webm bug.
To work around the failures in the nightly test the jenkins
job has been switched to use the hardfloat compiler and qemu
environment. Even though this is the same version, it has
not shown the hanging behavior.

Cap arf boost in perceptual quality mode
