MinetaSandJoost VandeVondele a5643b89fd Remove extraReduction
Since bestValue becomes value and beta - alpha is always non-negative,
extraReduction is always false, hence it has no effect.

This patch includes small changes to improve readability.

MinetaSandJoost VandeVondele 6e63dd63a4 Use int conversion for Option class
The current implementation generates warnings on MSVC. However, we have
no real use cases for double-typed UCI option values now. Also parameter
tuning only accepts following three types:

  int, Value, Score

MinetaSandJoost VandeVondele 38a80c0b47 Simplify away complexityAverage
Instead of tracking the average of complexity values, calculate
complexity of root position at the beginning of the search and use it as
a scaling factor in time management.

MinetaSandJoost VandeVondele 587bc647d7 Remove non_pawn_material in NNUE::evaluate
After "Use NNUE complexity in search, retune related parameters" commit,
the effect of non-pawn material adjustment has been nearly diminished.
This patch removes pos.non_pawn_material as a simplification, which
passed non-regression tests with both STC and LTC.

MinetaSandJoost VandeVondele 2c36d1e7e7 Fix overflow in add_dpbusd_epi32x2
This patch fixes 16bit overflow in *_add_dpbusd_epi32x2 functions,
that can be triggered in rare cases depending on the NNUE weights.

While the code leads to some slowdown on affected architectures
(most notably avx2), the fix is simpler than some of the other
options discussed in
https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/4394

Code suggested by Sopel97.

Result of "bench 4096 1 30 default depth nnue":

| Architecture        | master    | patch (gcc) | patch (clang) |
|---------------------|-----------|-------------|---------------|

| x86-64              | 762122798 | 762122798   | 762122798     |

Following architectures will experience ~4% slowdown due to an
additional instruction in the middle of hot path:

* x86-64-avx512
* x86-64-bmi2
* x86-64-avx2
* x86-64-sse41-popcnt (x86-64-modern)
* x86-64-ssse3
* x86-32-sse41-popcnt

This patch clearly loses Elo against master with both STC and LTC.

MinetaSandJoost VandeVondele 5a30b087c3 Expand statistics tools for engine development
This patch adds more debugging slots up to 32 per type and provide tools
to calculate standard deviation and Pearson's correlation coefficient.

However, due to slot being 0 at default, dbg_hit_on(c, b) has to be removed.
