Refactor code for HistogramCombine and optimize the code by calculating
the combined entropy and avoid un-necessary Histogram merges.
This speeds up lossless encoding by 1-2% and almost no impact on compression
density.

Optimize 'VP8LCalculateEstimateForCacheSize' for lower quality ranges (Q < 50).
The entropy is generally lower for higher cache_bits, so start searching from
higher cache_bits and settle for a local minima, instead of evaluating all
values.
This speeds up the lossless encoding at lower qualities by 10-15%.

Also created variant VP8LPrefixEncodeBits that returns the
code & extra_bits only.
There's no impact on compression density and compression speed.

Speed up HashChainFindCopy by optimizing on number of calls to
FindMatchLength method.
This change speeds up the lossless & lossy (Alpha) encoding by 20%
without loss of compression density.
At method=3, lossy (Alpha) compression speed (and density) remains
unchanged, as at that settings, the costly Backward Refs method is not
called

Disable costly 'BackwardReferencesTraceBackwards' for encoding Alpha plane.
Increase the threshold for triggering 'BackwardReferencesTraceBackwards' to
quality 25 and above. Also lower the Alpha quality (at method 3) to be
lesser than this threshold (25).

rather than symlink the webm/vpx terms, use the same header as libvpx to
reference in-tree files
based on the discussion in:

This is required for WebP lossy+Alpha images, where Alpha channel is taking
60-70% of the compression (CPU) cycles.
Also evaluated on 1000 PNG corpus and overall compression speed
is 15-40% better for lossy (PNG+Alpha) compression.
The pure lossless compression numbers are almost same (or little
better) with this change.

- Changed the dynamic range where more aggressive
(BackwardReferencesTraceBackward) heuristic is run from quality > 10
(instead of quality > 25).
- Limit the backward-ref Window size to 16*width & 256*width for lower
qualities ([0, 25[ & [25, 50[) respectively, instead of 1M window.
- Evaluate the params for HashChainFindCopy outside this function call
and pass it, instead of recomputing them for every call.

in debug mode, some float operations see their intermediate
values stored in memory rather than staying in the FPU (which
is 80bit precision).
Several fixes are possible (breaking long calculations into
atomic steps for instance), but simpler of all is just about
turning the cost[] array into float* instead of double*.
The code is a tad faster, and i didn't see any major output
size difference.

Order-by-cost mostly unchanged (up to a scaling constant 1/log(2))

Updated histo_bits to 3 from 4 and changed the quality threshold for inner loop for HashChainFindCopy.
Impact: 0.5%-0.8% better bpp with 15%-20% hit on encoding throughput
at default encoding settings.

The new method VP8LGetBackwardReferences hides internal
heuristics used for choosing RLE or LZ77 based refs.
