Subject: [PATCH] rtc: Avoid reset of segment for inactive blocks

For active_map in rtc mode.
For skipped blocks that are labeled as inactive:
remove the reset to 0 for the segment_id. This allows
them to be skippped in loopfilter at the block level
(since SEG_LVL_ALT_LF_Y_H/V is set in av1_apply_active_map).

The fix needed to support this is to make sure the
segment_skip block uses GLOBALMV and LAST_FRAME,
as required by the bitstream. In the current code we
were allowing for NEAREST if motion vector is (0, 0)),
which is incorrect. The current patch explicitly puts
this constraint (globalmv-last) early in nonrd_pickmode.

This fix has small speedup, ~1%, with negligible quality
change.
