New Imbalance Tables Tweak
...
Imbalance tables tweaked to contain MiddleGame and Endgame values, instead of a single value.
The idea started from Fisherman, which requested my help to tune the values back in June/July,
so I tuned the values back then, and we were able to accomplish good results,
but not enough to pass both STC and LTC tests.
So after the recent changes, I decided to give it another shot, and I am glad that it was a successful attempt.
A special thanks goes also to mstembera, which notified me a simple way to let the patch perform a little better.

King Psqt Tuning
...
After a session of tuning for King Psqt I got some new values, which was later
tweaked manually by me Fauzi, to result in an Elo-gain patch which seems to scale
pretty well:
STC: LLR: -2.96 (-2.94,2.94) [0.00,4.00]

Linear Protector bonus by distance
...
Replacing the old Protector table with a simple linear formula which takes into account a different slope for each different piece type.
The idea of this simplification of Protector is originated by Alain (Rocky)

Variable tuning
...
A tuning patch which cover the following changes:
increase the importance of queen and rook mobility in endgame and
decrease it in mg, since if we use the heavy pieces too early in the game
we will just make opponent develop their pieces by threatening ours.
King Psqt:
1)King will be encouraged more to stay in the first ranks in the MG
2)and will be encouraged more to go to the middle of the board/last ranks in the EG
Bishop scale better in EG
Logical changes on various psqt tables
1/6 of the changes of the last tuning session on mobility tables
