Use the chessboard pattern pred search in newmv mode

This commit extends the chessboard pattern prediction filter search.
If the above and left blocks have the same prediction filter type,
the encoder will skip the prediction filter type search and use the
reference one.

The overall chessboard pattern prediction filter type search reduces
speed 3 runtime for hard clips. Experiments on park joy at 1080p
and 15000 kbps show that the runtime goes from 723265 ms to 65832 ms,
i.e., about 10% speed-up. Compression performance wise, it affects
the coding quality by
