/**
 * Computes SSE of a compound predictor constructed from 2 fundamental
 * predictors p0 and p1 using blending with mask.
 *
 * r1:  Residuals of p1.
 *      (source - p1)
 * d:   Difference of p1 and p0.
 *      (p1 - p0)
 * m:   The blending mask
 * N:   Number of pixels
 *
 * 'r1', 'd', and 'm' are contiguous.
 *
 * Computes:
 *  Sum((MAX_MASK_VALUE*r1 + mask*d)**2), which is equivalent to:
 *  Sum((mask*r0 + (MAX_MASK_VALUE-mask)*r1)**2),
 *    where r0 is (source - p0), and r1 is (source - p1), which is in turn
 *    is equivalent to:
 *  Sum((source*MAX_MASK_VALUE - (mask*p0 + (MAX_MASK_VALUE-mask)*p1))**2),
 *    which is the SSE of the residuals of the compound predictor scaled up by
 *    MAX_MASK_VALUE**2.
 *
 * Note that we clamp the partial term in the loop to 16 bits signed. This is
 * to facilitate equivalent SIMD implementation. It should have no effect if
 * residuals are within 16 - WEDGE_WEIGHT_BITS (=10) signed, which always
 * holds for 8 bit input, and on real input, it should hold practically always,
 * as residuals are expected to be small.

 *
 *  Sum(mask*(r0**2 - r1**2)) > MAX_MASK_VALUE/2 * (sum(r0**2) - sum(r1**2))
 *
 *  The right hand side does not depend on the mask, and needs to be passed as
 *  the 'limit' parameter.
 *
 *  After pre-computing (r0**2 - r1**2), which is passed in as 'ds', the left
 *  hand side is simply a scalar product between an int16_t and uint8_t vector.
 *
 *  Note that for efficiency, ds is stored on 16 bits. Real input residuals
 *  being small, this should not cause a noticeable issue.
