Fix time parameters for blitz games

Browse source 
The ideal setting for super-blitz might be something like:

    "Emergency Base Time" = 50
    "Emergency Move Time" = 5

This would give a total emergency time buffer of:

    50 + 40 * 5 = 250 ms

This setup replaces the previous half cooked hack
"Don't blunder under extreme time pressure".

Test results are very good at super blitz, but keep good even
at 60 secs.

ELO: 24.30 +-2.4 (95%) LOS: 100.0%
