moved segment based LPF level selection under CONFIG_FEATUREUPDATES

This commit moved segment based loop filter level selection into
the experiment of CONFIG_FEATUREUPDATES. As previous commit noted,
the segment based loop filter selection helps the compression by
~0.1% on cif set, the ongoing experiment CONFIG_FEATUREUPDATES
made encoding updates of the segment based LPF level more efficient,
hence, another .04% gain on cif set. The commit also fixed an issue
previously where encoder/decoder may use different loop filter level
for one of the segments.
