Timothy HerchenandJoost VandeVondele 9b164d9520 Shave some instructions off a hot loop in affine transform 
On x86, GCC generates highly suboptimal code for this loop in its old form,
about 2x as many instructions as necessary. This decreases throughput
especially in an SMT setting. Clang does a better job but this change still has
some improvement. Note that the std::ptrdiff_t type is not optional; using an
unsigned type brings back the bad assembly. (Not sure why, but it seems
reliable on all the GCC versions I tested.)

Syine MinetaandJoost VandeVondele a47a1c1804 Penalty to TT move history on MultiCut 
If a reduced search fails high with the TT move excluded, we know that
there are multiple moves that can produce cutoffs. Applying a  penalty
to the TT move history reduces extensions for TT moves so that it may
spend a bit more time exploring other moves.

Stefan GeschwentnerandJoost VandeVondele bfc7000597 Adjustment of the aspiration window after fail high/low. 
For the new bound in the opposite direction of the fail, use a weighted average of alpha, beta and best value +- delta. In the case of a fail high, different average weights are used depending on whether or not there was a best move change during the last search.

The weights are determined from the following two consecutive LTC tunings.

Michael ChalyandJoost VandeVondele af181d9fe1 Small simplification in probCut movepicker 
Remove no longer required condition for tt moves. The idea is that if tt the value is
greater than probCut beta try tt move that is a capture anyway - even if it
doesn't pass SEE check.  This idea in various implementations passed some STCs
and was looking decent at LTCs as a gainer.

Stefan GeschwentnerandJoost VandeVondele d11f49b790 Remove log depth reduction terms. 
Motivated by the elo loss of last VVLTC regression test i remove the new log
depth reductions (tuned at STC) to regain strength at VVLTC. The constant terms
are adjusted based on the old values and the changes from the last added VVLTC
tuning.

Stefan GeschwentnerandJoost VandeVondele c56bd10cb5 Fix undefined behavior in stalemate trap detection. 
An important part of it is a function which detects if we can move a king or
pawn. If this function called before quiet move generation phase the end of the
checked move list is undefined (Thanks to AliceRoselia pointing out we have
some problem because of wrong bench in a test).

This problem exists also in master but is really rarely triggered (thanks to
vondele which found one) but it seen significant more often if the capture
order score is increased.

This fix now simply assumes in this case (and other similiar cases) that a king
or pawn can move without checking any moves.
