Stefan GeschwentnerandJoona Kiiski 13c11f4048 Introduce Counter Move History tables
Introduce a counter move history table which additionally is indexed by the last move's piece and target square.
For quiet move ordering use now the sum of standard and counter move history table.

STC:
LLR: 2.96 (-2.94,2.94) [-1.50,4.50]
Total: 4747 W: 1005 L: 885 D: 2857

LTC:
LLR: 2.95 (-2.94,2.94) [0.00,6.00]
Total: 5726 W: 1001 L: 872 D: 3853

Because of reported low NPS on multi core test
STC (7 threads):
ELO: 7.26 +-3.3 (95%) LOS: 100.0%
Total: 14937 W: 2710 L: 2398 D: 9829
