cf3dbcb5ac Time management improvements
1. Tune time management parameters.
2. Scale the optimum time and maximum time parameters based on the amount of
   time left, using a logarithmic scale.

Many acknowledgements to @FauziAkram for tuning the parameters and for the
original idea (see
https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/652f0356de6d262d08d333c5).
