The most common conditions are re-ordered and cached.
iter_min was recently introduced to make sure enough iterations
are made in cases where there are many matches (mostly uniform regions).
Now that those are properly analyzed, it becomes useless.

-Skip examining quantized levels that are too high.
-Calculate last_pos_cost only when needed.
Encoding speed for m6 is increased by about 3%;
Compression performance is neutral.

max_i4_header_bits_ could drop to zero for difficult image and trigger
a loop. Surprisingly, StatLoop() didn't have this bug.

Pick the mode with the smallest alpha.
It only affects m0, in which case the mode decision is not re-examined
later in VP8Decimate(). Tests on some natural content png images show
PSNR increase as well as visual quality improvement.

SSIM results are incompatible with previous version!
We're now averaging the SSIM value for each pixels instead of
printing a frame-level global SSIM value.
* Got rid of some old code
* switched to uint32_t for accumulation
* refactoring
SSIM calculation is ~4x faster now.

Having it architecture dependent resulted in an extra
function call of an extern function, hence no inlining and
a 5-10% impact on performance.

-print_psnr is now much faster because it doesn't use the SSIM code.
The SSIM speed-up and re-write will come later.

we don't need to centralize best_uv[] since target_uv[] and best_rgb_uv[]
are already centralized. The diff 'W' was just in the ~[-2,2] range, so
we can ignore the correction.
Overall speed-impact is not large, though. Around ~4% faster conversion.
Output with -pre 4 is expected to be slightly different

also: remove the useless clipping in StoreGray()
For speed reason, the 'gray' plane was initialized with the same
value for 2x2 block. But in some cases (underlying camera noise, e.g.),
it could lead to instability during iteration, noise amplification,
and visible banding.
Using a precise (but slower) initialization solves the issue, and
since the convergence is faster, we might actually gain some speed.

We usually need at least 2 iterations to converge
(and usually not much more after that). Only 1 was not enough.

Change it from transparent white to transparent black, which matches
the transparent color assumed in Webp dispose-to-background method.
Also pre-multiply background colors before comparison in anim_diff,
just as what is done with regular pixel values.

Set enc->prev_candidate_undecided_ as 0 when a frame is not chosen
as a possible keyframe, so that the dispose method can be
dispose-to-background.

No need to find backward references for pixels in uniform regions
by looking at all pixels.
Only pixels at the same distance from the end need to be compared to.

if src_{r,g,b} = 0, any value of src_a or dst_a such that
abs(src_a - dst_a) <= max_allowed_diff
was making the test pass, despite being very different-looking pixels.
The fix is to require same values for src_a and dst_a before attempting
an r/g/b comparison.

Constants are such that brute force is sometimes faster for some
data (mostly big images it seems).
