optimize AAC/EAAC/AAC+ encoding for ARM
* Review AAC open-source encoders
* Define test cases and allocate free test content
* document performance hot spot identification mechanisms
* create test-harness and keep track of performance numbers over time
* hand optimize AAC encoders working together with upstream community

Whiteboard
[asac] drafter cannot attend UDS ... declining so we don't get a session.
[asac] the heavy lifting discussoin at UDS for codec optimizations will be done in https:/
[asac Nov 17]: work items each worth ~2 days of work are missing
[asac Nov 17]: wiki page needs to be renamed to have CamelCase naming scheme
[gsachin,rajeev]: workitems for 11.03 seem to be stretched , please check if some workitems need to be shifted to 11.04 and 11.05 ???
[kan]: ffmpeg aac encoder is float point and far away to achieve real-time encoding. Maybe we need switch to android aac encode for real-time requirement, need check license issue.
