  /*
  This function inputs a vector of quantized spectral data, quant[][], and returns a vector,
  'book_vector[]' that describes how to group together the scalefactor bands into a smaller
  number of sections.  There are SFB_NUM_MAX elements in book_vector (equal to 49 in the 
  case of long blocks and 112 for short blocks), and each element has a huffman codebook 
  number assigned to it.

  For a quick and simple algorithm, this function performs a binary
  search across the sfb's (scale factor bands).  On the first approach, it calculates the 
  needed amount of bits if every sfb were its own section and transmitted its own huffman 
  codebook value side information (equal to 9 bits for a long block, 7 for a short).  The 
  next iteration combines adjacent sfb's, and calculates the bit rate for length two sfb 
  sections.  If any wider two-sfb section requires fewer bits than the sum of the two 
  single-sfb sections (below it in the binary tree), then the wider section will be chosen.
  This process occurs until the sections are split into three uniform parts, each with an
  equal amount of sfb's contained.  

  The binary tree is stored as a two-dimensional array.  Since this tree is not full, (there
  are only 49 nodes, not 2^6 = 64), the numbering is a little complicated.  If the tree were
  full, the top node would be 1.  It's children would be 2 and 3.  But, since this tree
  is not full, the top row of three nodes are numbered {4,5,6}.  The row below it is
  {8,9,10,11,12,13}, and so on.  

  The binary tree is called bit_stats[112][3].  There are 112 total nodes (some are not
  used since it's not full).  bit_stats[x][0] holds the bit totals needed for the sfb sectioning
  strategy represented by the node x in the tree.  bit_stats[x][1] holds the optimal huffman
  codebook table that minimizes the bit rate, given the sectioning boundaries dictated by node x.

     - Initally, the dynamic range is calculated for each spectral section.  The section
     can only be entropy coded with books that have an equal or greater dynamic range
     than the section's spectral data.  The exception to this is for the 11th ESC codebook.
     If the dynamic range is larger than 16, then an escape code is appended after the
     table 11 codeword which encodes the larger value explicity in a pseudo-non-uniform
     quantization method.
