Improve motion search in real-time mode

Applied better MV prediction in real-time mode, which improves
the encoding quality.

Used quarter-pixel search instead of iterative sub-pixel search
for speed >=5 to improve encoding performance.

Tests on the test set showed:
1. For speed=-5, quality improvement: 1.7% on AvgPSNR and 2.1%
on SSIM, performance improvement: 3.6% (This counts in the
performance lose caused by MV prediction calculation in "Improve
MV prediction in vp8_pick_inter_mode() for speed>3").
2. For speed=-8, quality improvement: 2.1% on AvgPSNR and 2.5%
on SSIM. but, 6.9% performance decrease because of MV prediction
calculation. This should be improved later.
