Well, let's first merge your code and then we'll see about possible
simplifications.

>> frame: 20 ms encoding
>> sub-frame: 5 ms encoding (internal)
>> layer: one frame of nb or sb
>> sb: sub-band
>> wb: nb+sb
>> uwb: nb+sb+sb

Well, I haven't quite defined whether a frame includes all "layers" or
just one...

You know you can already specify the bit-rate directly instead of the
quality, right? Also, VBR now supports a "max rate" option.
