[x265] [PATCH] no-rdo: giving weightage to the cost of all CU's and neighbour CU's for early exit

I have a few questions.

1. Do we need so many local variables?

2. Why are we adding outTempCU->cost to totalCost and then comparing
against outBestCU->cost? That doesnt make much sense to me. AFAIk,
outTempCU does not contain any valid data - we should remove this.

3. Should we be adding costCUColocated0 and costCUColocated1 also? Adding
up spatial and temporal costs, and then comparing against a threshold
derived from spatial costs - umm, no. Lets leave these out.

4. The rest of it looks ok, logically. But now you may need to re-tune this
with different weights.

Best,
Deepthi
