* @brief
*  evaluate best intra 16x16 mode (rate distortion opt off)
*
* @par Description
*  This function evaluates all the possible intra 16x16 modes and finds the mode
*  that best represents the macro-block (least distortion) and occupies fewer
*  bits in the bit-stream.
*
* @param[in]   ps_proc_ctxt
*  pointer to process context (handle)
*
* @remarks
*  Ideally the cost of encoding a macroblock is calculated as
*  (distortion + lambda*rate). Where distortion is SAD/SATD,... between the
*  input block and the reconstructed block and rate is the number of bits taken
*  to place the macroblock in the bit-stream. In this routine the rate does not
*  exactly point to the total number of bits it takes, rather it points to header
*  bits necessary for encoding the macroblock. Assuming the deltaQP, cbp bits
*  and residual bits fall in to texture bits the number of bits taken to encoding
*  mbtype is considered as rate, we compute cost. Further we will approximate
*  the distortion as the deviation b/w input and the predicted block as opposed
*  to input and reconstructed block.
*
*  NOTE: As per the Document JVT-O079, for intra 16x16 macroblock,
*  the SAD and cost are one and the same.

* @brief
*  evaluate best intra 8x8 mode (rate distortion opt on)
*
* @par Description
*  This function evaluates all the possible intra 8x8 modes and finds the mode
*  that best represents the macro-block (least distortion) and occupies fewer
*  bits in the bit-stream.
*
* @param[in]    ps_proc_ctxt
*  pointer to proc ctxt
*
* @remarks Ideally the cost of encoding a macroblock is calculated as
*  (distortion + lambda*rate). Where distortion is SAD/SATD,... between the
*  input block and the reconstructed block and rate is the number of bits taken
*  to place the macroblock in the bit-stream. In this routine the rate does not
*  exactly point to the total number of bits it takes, rather it points to header
*  bits necessary for encoding the macroblock. Assuming the deltaQP, cbp bits
*  and residual bits fall in to texture bits the number of bits taken to encoding
*  mbtype is considered as rate, we compute cost. Further we will approximate
*  the distortion as the deviation b/w input and the predicted block as opposed
*  to input and reconstructed block.
*
*  NOTE: TODO: This function needs to be tested
*
*  @return      none

*  NOTE: As per the Document JVT-O079, for the whole intra 4x4 macroblock,

******************************************************************************
*
* @brief evaluate best intra 4x4 mode (rate distortion opt on)
*
* @par Description
*  This function evaluates all the possible intra 4x4 modes and finds the mode
*  that best represents the macro-block (least distortion) and occupies fewer
*  bits in the bit-stream.
*
* @param[in]    ps_proc_ctxt
*  pointer to proc ctxt
*
* @remarks
*  Ideally the cost of encoding a macroblock is calculated as
*  (distortion + lambda*rate). Where distortion is SAD/SATD,... between the
*  input block and the reconstructed block and rate is the number of bits taken
*  to place the macroblock in the bit-stream. In this routine the rate does not
*  exactly point to the total number of bits it takes, rather it points to header
*  bits necessary for encoding the macroblock. Assuming the deltaQP, cbp bits
*  and residual bits fall in to texture bits the number of bits taken to encoding
*  mbtype is considered as rate, we compute cost. Further we will approximate
*  the distortion as the deviation b/w input and the predicted block as opposed
*  to input and reconstructed block.
*
*  NOTE: As per the Document JVT-O079, for the whole intra 4x4 macroblock,
*  24*lambda is added to the SAD before comparison with the best SAD for
*  inter prediction. This is an empirical value to prevent using too many intra
*  blocks.
*
* @return      none
