Profiled data: Profiled few images and found that in the function VP8LFastLog,
90% of time table lookup is performed, while rest of time (10%) call to log
function is made. Typical lookup accounts for 10 CPU instructions and call to
log 200 instruction counts. The weighted average comes out to be 30
instructions per call. For mid qualities (25-75), this function (VP8LFastLog)
accounts for 30-50% of total CPU cycles (via call path: VP8LCOlorSpaceTransform
-> PredictionCostCrossColor -> ShannonEntropy). After this change, the log is
called less that 1% of time, with average instructions being 15 per call.
Measured the performance over 1000 files for various qualities and found
overall compression speedup between 10-15% (in quality range [0, 75]). The
compression density loss is around 0.5% (though at some qualities, compression
is little better as well).

Avoid bit_costs evaluated every time in function HistogramDistance. Also moved
VP8LInitBackwardRefs and VP8LClearBackwardRefs to backward_references.h

No empty trees are codified with the simple Huffman code. The simple Huffman
code is simplified to be either a 1-bit code or 8-bit code for symbols.

This improves compression density. For example, at quality 95 on 1000 PNGs:
bpp(before) = 2.447 and bpp(after) = 2.412

* removed use_lz77_ field, and added cache_bits_ one.
* use more BackwardRefs params
* move code around to organize more logically
* reduce memory use on histo
...

instead of lz77+rle
* introduce VP8LBackwardRefs structure and simplify the code by not passing
around {PixOrCopy/int} pairs.
More functions should be turned into using this struct (TODO(later)).
Change-Id: I69c5c9fa61dddd61a2abc2824d70b8606a1c55b6
* don't transmit the number of Huffman tree group explicitly
* move color-cache information before the meta-Huffman block
* also add a check that color_cache_bits is in [1..11] range, as per spec.

(Essentially, there was no need of a separate 'argb_palette' array. And
argb_palette[0] was never being set).
Change-Id: Id0a8c7e063d3af41e39fc9b8661611b51ccc55cd
make elements of "Multiplier" struct unsigned, so that any negative values are
automatically converted to "mod 256" values.
Change-Id: Iab4f9bacc50dcd94a557944727d9338dbb0982f7
so that it uses original values of left, top etc for prediction rather than the
predicted values of the same. Also, do some renaming in the same to make it
more readable.

- VP8LEncAnalyze, EvalAndApplySubtractGreen, ApplyPredictFilter,
ApplyCrossColorFilter
- Added palette handling and transform buffer management in VP8LEncodeImage()
- Add Transforms (subtract Green, Predict, cross_color) to dsp/lossless.c.
These are more-or-less copied from src/lossless code.
After this Change, will implement the EncodeImageInternal() method.
Change-Id: Idf71f803c24b3b5ae3b5079b15e019721784611d
no version of msvc currently implements log2(). unconditionally define
NOT_HAVE_LOG2 in this case to simplify building libwebp sources in other
projects.
