This commit fixed an overflow in ssim calculation, added register

It also changed the sampling points to every 4x4 instead of 8x8 and

Increase static linkage, remove unused functions
A large number of functions were defined with external linkage, even

contained within the current translation unit. Functions that were

Set bounds from the array when iterating mmaps.
The mmap allocation code in vp8_dx_iface.c was inconsistent.
The static array vp8_mem_req_segs defines two descriptors,
but only the first is real. The second is a sentinel and
isn't actually allocated, so vpx_codec_alg_priv is declared
with mmaps[NELEMENTS(vp8_mem_req_segs)-1]. Some functions
use this reduced upper bound when iterating though the mmap
array, but these two functions did not.
Instead, this commit calls NELEMENTS(...->mmaps) to directly
query the bounds of the dereferenced array.
This fixes an array-bounds warning from gcc 4.6 on
vp8_xma_set_mmap.

Encoder loopfilter running in its own thread
In multithreaded mode the loopfilter is running in its own thread (filter level
calculation and frame filtering). Filtering is mostly done in parallel with the
bitstream packing. Before starting the packing the loopfilter level has
to be calculated. Also any needed reference frame copying is done in the
filter thread.
Currently the encoder will create n+1 threads, where n > 1 is the number of
threads specified by application and 1 is the extra filter thread. With n = 1
the encoder runs in single thread mode. There will never be more than n threads
running concurrently.

Removed firstpass motion map
The firstpass motion map consists of an 8-bit flag for
each MB indicating how strongly the firstpass code
believes it should be filtered during the second pass
ARNR filtering.
For long or large format material the motion map can
become extremely large and hamper the operation of
the encoding process.
This change removes the motion map altogether, leaving
the second pass to rely on the magnitude of the motion
compensated error to determine the filter weight to
use for the MB during ARNR filtering.
Tests on the derf set indicate that the effect of this
change is neutral, with some small wins and losses. The
motion map has therefore been removed based on
a cost/benefit evaluation.

Fix drastic undershoot in long form content
When the modified_error_left accumulator exceeds INT_MAX, an incorrect
cast to int resulted in a negative value, causing the rate control to
allocate no bits to that keyframe group, leading to severe undershoot
and subsequent poor quality.
This error was exposed by the recent change to the rolling target and
actual spend accumulators in commit 305be4e4 which fixed them to
actually calculate the average value rather than be re-initialized
on every frame to the average per-frame bitrate. When this bug was
triggered, the target bitrate could be 0, so the rolling target
becomes small, which causes the undershoot. The code prior to 305be4e4
did not exhibit this behavior because the rolling target was always
set to a reasonable value and was independent of the actual target
bitrate. With this patch, the actual target bitrate is calculated
correctly, and the rate control tracks as expected.
This cast was likely added to silence a compiler warning on a comparison
between a double (modified_error_left) and an int (0). Instead, this
patch removes the cast and changes the comparison to be against 0.0,
which should prevent the warning from reoccuring.
This fixes issue #289. Special thanks to gnafu for his efforts in
reporting and debugging this fix.
