Just so we don't forget, there is a handful of 10bit tests that Daniel Almeida
omitted when he added tests to fluster (though only 1 is 420). I will try and
fix that later on. There is otherwise 5G worth of 10bit tests available. In
fluster we decided to go for the same subset libvpx uses, otherwise no one would
ever want to download these tests.

About the "min supported", G2 VP9 scores is 157/303 here (in comparision rkvdec
is 225, and MTK VCODEC 275). At this failure level this has no longer anything
to do with the size of the render. There is likely couple of bugs hidden in the
driver for the corner cases tested by the suite. Also, to illustrate that the
size isn't the only variable in the failures, we have a vp90-2-02-size-
64x34.webm that pass (the driver pretends that 64x64 is the minimum). I didn't
look at G2 output very closely, but on RKVDEC, in similar failures we have
perfect keyframe, and a single corrupted tile on the following decode. My belief
is that there is bugs in the drivers to be found and fixed. In absence of vendor
support, or working reference it will be difficult / near impossible to fix, but
I'm documenting this so we stop thinking this is just "not supported".

cheers,
Nicolas
