JVET-S0242 Cleanup on merge_idx [J. Y. Lee (Sejong University), W. Lim, G. Bang (ETRI)] [late]

Since the syntax merge_idx is used to check various merge candidates in the regular merge mode and CIIP. However, merge_idx in CIIP contributes to a small coding performance gain, so the contribution proposes cleanup about merge_idx. No obvious benefit was evident (even some loss for the proposed minor change). It was concluded that there was insufficient justification for the proposed low-level change; that nothing was broken.

No action was taken on this.
