Refactor rd_pick_partition for parameter control
This commit changes the partition search order of superblocks from
{SPLIT, NONE, HORZ, VERT} to {NONE, SPLIT, HORZ, VERT} for
consistency with that of sub8x8 partition search. It enable the use
of early termination in partition search for all block sizes.
For ped_area_1080p 50 frames coded at 4000 kbps, it makes the runtime
goes down from 844305ms -> 818003ms (3% speed-up) at speed 0.
This will further move towards making the in-search partition types
configurable, hence unifying various speed-up approaches.
Some speed 1 and 2 features are turned off during the refactoring
process, including:
disable_split_var_thresh
using_small_partition_info
Stricter constraints are applied to use_square_partition_only for
right/bottom boundary blocks. Will bring back/refine these features
subsequently. At this point, it makes derf set at speed 1 about
0.45% higher in compression performance, and 9% down in run-time.
