CascadedBiQuadFilter can run identical filters multiple times. This CL
allows the use of different filters in each step. This enables the use
of more elaborate filters. The filters are defined by zeros, poles and
gains.
The 'old' way of initializing CascadedBiQuadFilter with a transfer
function and number of filters is left intact.

Letting the delay estimator operate at a sampling frequency of 2 kHz
with audio between 0 and 1 kHz makes it sensitive to noisy environments.
This CL bandpass filters the 16 kHz signal before downsampling to 2 kHz
in a way that the downsampled 2 kHz signal contains audio between 1 and
2 kHz. It also sets downsampling factor 8 as default which significantly
reduces computational complexity.

The purpose of this work is to improve the performance of the echo canceler (AEC3) when the farend signal contains stationary noises:
- An stationarity estimator of the farend signal has been added for detecting the portions of the farend signal that are pure noise.
- When the echo canceler deals with a portion of the signal that contains basically noise, the echo suppressor is able to back-off and avoid the fading of the nearend speech.

The estimation on how well the linear filter in the AEC3 is performing
is done through an estimation of the ERLE. That estimation is then
used for knowing how much the suppressor needs to react in order to
cancel all the echoes.
In the current code, the ERLE is quite conservative during farend
inactivity and it is common that it goes to a minimum value during
those periods. Under highly varying conditions, that is probably the
right approach. However, in other scenarios where conditions does not
change that fast there is a loss in transparency that could be avoided
by means of a different ERLE estimation.
In the current CL, the ERLE estimation has been changed in the
following way:
- During farend activity the ERLE is estimated through a 1st order AR
smoother. This smoother goes faster toward lower ERLE values than to
larger ones in order to avoid overestimation of this
value. Furthermore, during the beginning of the farend burst, an
estimation of the ERLE is done that aim to represent the performance
of the linear filter during onsets. Under highly variant environments,
those quantities, the ERLE during onsets and the one computed during
the whole farend duration, would differ a lot. If the environment is
more stationary, those quantities would be much more similar.
- During nearend activity the ERLE estimation is decreased toward a
value of the ERLE during onsets.
