This patch fixes build of AAC encoder optimized for mips that was broken due
to some changes in generic code that were not propagated to the optimized code.
Also, some functions in the optimized code are basically duplicate of functions
from generic code. Since they do not bring enough improvement to the optimized
code to justify their existence, they are removed (which improves
maintainability of the optimized code).
Optimizations disabled in 97437bd are enabled again.

The bulk of calls to quantize_band_cost are replaced
by a call to a version that memoizes, greatly improving
performance, since during coefficient search there is
a great deal of repeat work.
Memoization cannot always be applied, so do this in a
different function, and leave the original as-is.
This finalizes merging of the work in the patches in ticket #2686.
Improvements to twoloop and RC logic are extensive.
The non-exhaustive list of twoloop improvments includes:
- Tweaks to distortion limits on the RD optimization phase of twoloop
- Deeper search in twoloop
- PNS information marking to let twoloop decide when to use it
(turned out having the decision made separately wasn't working)
- Tonal band detection and priorization
- Better band energy conservation rules
- Strict hole avoidance
For rate control:
- Use psymodel's bit allocation to allow proper use of the bit
reservoir. Don't work against the bit reservoir by moving lambda
in the opposite direction when psymodel decides to allocate more/less
bits to a frame.
- Retry the encode if the effective rate lies outside a reasonable
margin of psymodel's allocation or the selected ABR.
- Log average lambda at the end. Useful info for everyone, but especially
for tuning of the various encoder constants that relate to lambda
feedback.
Psy:
- Do not apply lowpass with a FIR filter, instead just let the coder
zero bands above the cutoff. The FIR filter induces group delay,
and while zeroing bands causes ripple, it's lost in the quantization
noise.
- Experimental VBR bit allocation code
- Tweak automatic lowpass filter threshold to maximize audio bandwidth
at all bitrates while still providing acceptable, stable quality.
I/S:
- Phase decision fixes. Unrelated to #2686, but the bugs only surfaced
when the merge was finalized. Measure I/S band energy accounting for
phase, and prevent I/S and M/S from being applied both.
PNS:
- Avoid marking short bands with PNS when they're part of a window
group in which there's a large variation of energy from one window
to the next. PNS can't preserve those and the effect is extremely
noticeable.
M/S:
- Implement BMLD protection similar to the specified in
ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Since M/S decision
doesn't conform to section 6.1, a different method had to be
implemented, but should provide equivalent protection.
- Move the decision logic closer to the method specified in
ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Specifically,
make sure M/S needs less bits than dual stereo.
- Don't apply M/S in bands that are using I/S
Now, this of course needed adjustments in the compare targets and
fuzz factors of the AAC encoder's fate tests, but if wondering why
the targets go up (more distortion), consider the previous coder
was using too many bits on LF content (far more than required by
psy), and thus those signals will now be more distorted, not less.
The extra distortion isn't audible though, I carried extensive
ABX testing to make sure.
A very similar patch was also extensively tested by Kamendo2 in
the context of #2686.

It is only (mis-)used to set the dsp fucntions clear_block(s). But
these functions always work on 16bits-wide elements, which make
the parameter useless and actually harmful, as it causes all content
on more than 8-bits to not use accelerated functions.

This patch refactors the AAC coders to reuse code
between the MIPS port and the regular, portable C code.
There were two main functions that had to use
hand-optimized versions of quantization code:
- search_for_quantizers_twoloop
- codebook_trellis_rate
Those two were split into their own template header
files so they can be inlined inside both the MIPS port
and the generic code. In each context, they'll link
to their specialized implementations, and thus be
optimized by the compiler.
This approach I believe is better than maintaining
several copies of each function. As past experience has
proven, having to keep those in sync was error prone.
In this way, they will remain in sync by default.
Also, an implementation of the dequantized output
argument for the optimized quantize_and_encode
functions is included in the patch. While the current
implementation of search_for_pred still isn't using
it, future iterations of main prediction probably will.
It should not imply any measurable performance hit while
not being used.
Code in aaccoder_mips.c was not synced with changes in aaccoder.c for
some time.
That was cause for some fate-aac tests failing.
This patch fixes the problems.
Optimizations disabled in 933309a are enabled again.

This commit updates the function definitions in the aaccoder_mips.c
file. This was broken around a month or so ago with the addition
of the rounding argument.
The previous commit in this series also introduced a separate array
to put the quantization error in, this also needed to be updated,
albeit non-functional, in the MIPS optimized aaccoder file.
Credits for the rounding goes to Claudio Freire.
