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

154b8d3ecb Remove VALUE_KNOWN_WIN.
After removing classic evaluation VALUE_KNOWN_WIN is not anymore returned explicit evaluation. So remove and replace it with VALUE_TB_WIN_IN_MAX_PLY.

Measurement on my big bench (bench 16 1 16 pos1000.fen) verifies that at least with current net the calculated evaluation lies always in the open interval  (-VALUE_KNOWN_WIN, VALUE_KNOWN_WIN).
So i consider this a non-functional change. But to be safe i tested this also at LTC as requested by Stephane Nicolet.

ef22829616 Do more futility pruning in qsearch
This patch introduces a third futility pruning heuristic in qsearch. The idea is
that the static exchange evaluation is much worse than the difference between
futility base and alpha. Thus we can assume that the probability of the move
being good enough to beat alpha is low so it can be pruned.

440feecb4d Reduce repetitions branches
Increase reduction on retrying a move we just retreated that falls in a repetition:
if current move can be the same move from previous previous turn then we retreated
that move on the previous turn, this patch increases reduction if retrying that move
results in a repetition.

How to continue from there? Maybe we some variants of this idea could bring Elo too
(only testing the destination square, or triangulations, etc.)
