Simplify endgame factor for opposite colored bishops
...
Stockfish is continually improving. Patches that gain elo in the past may
no longer be needed as stockfish improved elsewhere. This patch removes
passed pawns count dependence in opposite colored bishops scale factor.
We used the mean of passed count pawns (~1.4) to compensate, and changed
the base value from 16 to 22.

Rank-based outposts
...
Introduce OutpostRank[RANK_NB] which contains a bonus according to
the rank of the outpost. We use it for the primary Outpost bonus.
The values are based on the trends of the SPSA tuning run with some
manual tweaks.

----------------------------
The inspiration for this patch came from Stefan Geschwentner's attempt
of modifying BishopPawns into a rank-based penalty. Michael Stembera
suggested that maybe the S(0, 0) ranks (3rd, 7th and also maybe 8th)
can still be tuned. This would expand our definition of Outpost and
OutpostRanks would be removed altogether. Special thanks to Mark Tenzer
for all the help and excellent suggestions.

Rook PSQT Tuned

This patch uses about half the changes of the SPSA tuning run:
http://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/5dba93d30ebc5925b64ed3bf
About a month ago, xoto10's patch raised the mg value of the third rank
center files from -1 to 7 to encourage rook lifts to the third rank. About
three days later, Rocky's patch lowered this value from 7 to 3. This patch
raises that again from 3 to 12 and ends up greater than the original rook
lift patch.

How to continue from there?
The values in the rook table now look a bit strange for a human eye
and are hard to explain, maybe it would be nice to simplify them
by hand and see if we can pass another (clean) double green with a
more regular array.
