Add threshold to superblock filter level selection

Signal one bit to indicate whether current superblock reuses filter
level of previous superblock.
Try filtering and compute sse using previous filter level and search
the best possible filter level. If their diff is less than predefined
threshold, current superblock reuses previous level. Otherwise,
signal the best filter level.
