Retire FORCE_INLINE

No speed regression on my machine (i7-3770k, gcc 4.9.1, linux 3.16):

        stat        test     master   diff
        mean   2,482,415  2,474,987  7,906
        stdev      4,603      5,644  2,497

        speedup        0.32%
        P(speedup>0)  100.0%

Fishtest 9+0.03:

ELO: 0.26 +-1.8 (95%) LOS: 61.2%
Total: 60000 W: 12437 L: 12392 D: 35171

No functional change.

Resolves #334
