The timer will be fired asynchronously to handle
time management flags, while other threads are
searching.
This implementation uses a thread waiting on a
timed condition variable instead of real timers.
This approach allow to reduce platform dependant
code to a minimum and also is the most portable given
that timers libraries are very different among platforms
and also the best ones are not compatible with olds
Windows.
Also retire the now unused polling code.

And set them as default.
Introduce compile switch OLD_LOCKS to allow to fallback on
compatible locks supported by Windows XP and older versions.

They are fast and also have the same semantic of Linux ones.
This allow to simplify the code and especially to use
SleepConditionVariableSRW() to wait on a condition releaseing the lock,
this has the same semantic as pthread_cond_wait().

We already do this for locks. Also rename SitIdleEvent
in WaitCond to be uniform with Lunix naming.

Avoid to take the lock two times in a tight sequence, the first
in get_next_move() and the second to update sp->moves.
Do all with one lock and so retire the now useless locked version
of get_next_move().
Also fix some theorical race due to comparison sp->bestValue < sp->beta
is done out of lock protection. Finally fix another (harmless but time
waster) race that coudl occur because thread_should_stop() is also
called outside of lock protection.

This avoids inclusion of a bunch of not very commonly
used headers from windows.h
