[PATCH RFC 06/12] media: rockchip: rkvenc: Use MPP's moving-scene H.264 RDO tuning

From: Arun Iyengar <aiyengar1990 at gmail.com>
The H.264 mode decision and motion search registers had the values of
MPP's still-scene tuning set. MPP keeps two sets and switches per picture
from a motion detector (hal_h264e_vepu580_tune.c): the still-scene one
biases the decision towards intra and skip blocks and toward the zero
motion vector against flicker in surveillance video; the moving-scene
one is neutral: ATF weights 16, ATR weights 20, CIME/RIME cost
multipliers 4, no anti-flicker skip or intra, zero PMV off, no CIME SAD
early exits, move lambda 8, P dead zone 341/1024, ATR QP threshold 51,
intra cost thresholds 0 and the intra chroma weights.
Use the moving-scene set for every picture, and start the RDO lambda
table one entry lower than MPP (index 5, lambda / 2^(1/3)). At a fixed QP
(22-36, 1080p60 clips) this needs 7% (animation) to 11% (natural video)
fewer bits for the same PSNR-Y than the still-scene set with MPP's
lambda.
