[speex-dev] testenc and snr calculation

[Jean-Marc Valin]

Actually, the SNR calculation in testenc has been broken for a while.
The reason for taking the last frame was that the codec would introduce
a one-frame latency. I changed that to half a frame (10 ms) a while ago
and never updated testenc.
