d9ec82e743 Adjust stand pat in qsearch on pv nodes 
Instead of immediately returning a fail high do this only at non-pv nodes, for
pv nodes adjust bestValue to value between alpha and beta and continue
searching. Idea is to do it the same way as it's done in search where we don't
return positive beta cutoffs after ttHits / zero window search at PvNodes and
instead fully search lines.

Two issues had to be resolved:
    - in rare cases it set alpha to the same value as beta and thus broke some asserts;
    - messed up with returning tb win values.

7885fa5bd3 Track seldepth in qsearch too 
Sometimes if we count the reported PV length, it turns out to be longer than the
selective depth reported. This fixes this behavior by applying the selective
depth to qsearch since we do report PVs from it as well.

282e15bf75 Fix TB score output in UCI without using TB 
This is a rewrite of the fix introduced for
https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/issues/4413 in
https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/pull/4591 by @windfishballad it
targets only the relevant part of this issue that returns TB scores (CP 20000)
without using TB due to the downgrading of potentially false mates from the TT
to an optimal TB score.

the difference is that it is a much clearer code that introduces a separate
TB_VALUE constant to account for a correct distance from the TB_VALUE with
MAX_PLY.

the originally posted position in the issue does not trigger the problem
anymore, so here is a new position to test:
```
position fen 3k4/8/8/8/8/8/3BN3/3K4 w - - 0 1
go infinite
```

7970236e9e Fix undefined behavior in search. 
We use following line to clamp the search depth in some range:
Depth d = std::clamp(newDepth - r, 1, newDepth + 1);

Through negative extension its possible that the maximum value becomes smaller than the minimum value but then the behavior is undefined (see https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/algorithm/clamp). So replace this line with a safe implementation.

Remark:
We have in recent master already one line where up to 3 negative extensions are possible which could trigger this undefined behavior but this can only be happen for completed depth > 24 so its not discovered by our default bench. Recent negative extension tests by @fauzi shows then this undefined behavior with wrong bench numbers.

7f97ba775e Tweaking the futility pruning formula 
Huge credit goes also to candirufish,
as the idea was first tried by him, and then tuned by me at multiple phases.

Tweaking the futility pruning formula to be a bit more selective about when pruning is applied.
Adjust the value added to the static eval based on the bestValue relative to ss->staticEval. If bestValue is significantly lower, we add a larger value.

d30af4f669 Rewarding Quiet Moves that Enable Razoring 
The main idea of the patch comes from @peregrineshahin :
https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/65205363ac57711436728781

Another small idea (tuning) comes from @Vizvezdenec
https://tests.stockfishchess.org/tests/view/652e071ade6d262d08d318f4 And a long
phases of tuning and tests was done by me in order to make the patch be able to
pass both tests.

The idea, as mentioned by Peregrine is that in our standard code, if no best
move found after searching all moves, we give a bonus to the previous move that
caused the fail high. So in razoring we assume no bestmove will be found so we
might as well do the same.

b0658f09b9 Introduce pawn structure based history 
Original idea by Seer chess engine https://github.com/connormcmonigle/seer-nnue,
coding done by @Disservin, code refactoring done by @locutus2 to match the style
of other histories.

This patch introduces pawn structure based history, which assings moves values
based on last digits of pawn structure hash and piece type of moved piece and
landing square of the move. Idea is that good places for pieces are quite often
determined by pawn structure of position. Used in 3 different places
- sorting of quiet moves, sorting of quiet check evasions and in history based
pruning in search.

2d0237db3f add clang-format 
This introduces clang-format to enforce a consistent code style for Stockfish.

Having a documented and consistent style across the code will make contributing easier
for new developers, and will make larger changes to the codebase easier to make.

To facilitate formatting, this PR includes a Makefile target (`make format`) to format the code,
this requires clang-format (version 17 currently) to be installed locally.

Installing clang-format is straightforward on most OS and distros
(e.g. with https://apt.llvm.org/, brew install clang-format, etc), as this is part of quite commonly
used suite of tools and compilers (llvm / clang).

Additionally, a CI action is present that will verify if the code requires formatting,
and comment on the PR as needed. Initially, correct formatting is not required, it will be
done by maintainers as part of the merge or in later commits, but obviously this is encouraged.

a4fedd8152 Fix greater than TB scores in null move pruning. 
This patch is a simplification and a fix to dealing with null moves scores that returns proven mates or TB scores by preventing 'null move pruning' if the nullvalue is in that range.

Current solution downgrades nullValues on the non-PV node but the value can be used in a transposed PV-node to the same position afterwards (Triangulation), the later is prone to propagate a wrong score (96.05) to root that will not be refuted unless we search further.

Score of (96.05) can be obtained be two methods,

maxim static-eval returned on Pv update (mostly qSearch)
this downgrade (clamp) in NMP
and theoretically can happen with or without TBs but the second scenario is more dangerous than the first.
This fixes the reproducible case in very common scenarios with TBs as shown in the debugging at discord.

Fixes: #4699

38e830af4b Use more continuation histories. 
This patch allows stats updates and movepicker bonuses for continuation history 3 plies deep - so counter counter move.
Updates and movepicker usage are done with 1/4 multiplier compared to other histories.
