The randomize_buffer() implementation assures that "most of the time",
we'll do a good mix of wide16/wide8/hev/regular/no filters for complete
code coverage. However, this is not mathematically assured because that
would make the code either much more complex, or much less random.
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.
This introduces a slight timebase computation difference in zmbv-8bit
fate test. This is expected since the new options are double instead
of ints, and the additional precision skews the results in a non
meaningful way.
The recent commits change the value slightly. Even though it's
within the threshold it's better to risk as little as possible
especially when different systems, processors, FPUs and compilers
are involved.

This commit changes a few things about the noise substitution
logic:
- Brings back the quantization factor (reduced to 3) during
scalefactor index calculations.
- Rejects any zeroed bands. They should be inaudiable and it's
a waste transmitting the scalefactor indices for these.
- Uses swb_offsets instead of incrementing a 'start' with every
window group size.
- Rejects all PNS during short windows.
Overall improves quality. There was a plan to use the lfg system
to create the random numbers instead of using whatever the decoder
uses but for now this works fine. Entropy is far from important here.

This commit once again improves the PNS implementation by scaling the
thresholds with frequency. The thresholds get looser as the frequency
increases since higher frequencies are basically noise to human ears.
Also, this introduces quantization error correction for PNS. Should
the error be too much, no PNS will be used. The energy_ratio is used
to regulate the actual encoded PNS energy: if the generated PNS
energy is higher than the energy from the psy system, energy_ratio
is used to correct it so that hopefully once requantized and
transmitted the value in the decoder will be closer to what the
encoder has.

This was an oversight when the IS system was being first implemented.
The ener01 part was largely a result of trial and error and the fact
that the sum of coef0 and coef1 could result in a zero was
overlooked. Once ener01 turns to zero it's used to divide the left
channel energy which doesn't turn out so well as it fills IS[]
with -nan's and inf's which in turn confused the quantize_band_cost.

FATE refs changed to accomodate for the new default behavior of the function.
Numbers are now interpreted as a channel layout, instead of a number of channels.
TNS had both IS and PNS switched on when it makes more sense
to have them both off.
Prediction had a redundant argument.

IS and PNS increase quality a ton so as a result the PSNR changed.
Disable the extensions and keep the tests separate such that there
will be no red herrings if one test fails.

Tests fails on some ARM builds but it's close enough so it's okay.
