motion: Implement 3-level Hierarchial Motion Estimation

This patch does the following:
1) Create HME-level 0 planes
2) Add option "--hme" and "--hme-search" to enable HME
and to select search method for levels 0, 1 and 2

 	Enable motion estimation with source frame pixels, in this mode, 
 	motion estimation can be computed independently. Default disabled.
 
+.. option:: --hme, --no-hme
+
+	Enable 3-level Hierarchical motion estimation at One-Sixteenth, 
+	Quarter and Full resolution. Default disabled.
+
+.. option:: --hme-search <integer|string>,<integer|string>,<integer|string>
+
+	Motion search method for HME Level 0, 1 and 2. Refer to :option:`--me` for values.
+	Specify search method for each level. Alternatively, specify a single value
+	which will apply to all levels. Default is hex,umh,umh for 
+	levels 0,1,2 respectively.
