9fe9ff0082 Fix stack initialization
This fixes a bug where on line 278 the Stack::staticEvals are
initialized to 0. However VALUE_NONE is defined to be 32002 so
this is a bug in master. It is probably due to the calculation
of improvement, where staticEval prior to rootPos can be accessed.

39af98c807 Reintroduce doEvenDeeperSearch
This patch is basically the same as a reverted patch
but now has some guarding against search being stuck - the same
way as we do with double extensions. This should help with
search explosions - albeit slowly but they eventually should be resolved.

9d3fd011f1 Extend all moves at low depth if ttMove is doubly extended
If ttMove is doubly extended, we allow a depth growth of the remaining moves.
The idea is to get a more realistic score comparison, because of the depth
difference. We take some care to avoid this extension for high depths,
in order to avoid the cost, since the search result is supposed
to be more accurate in this case.

This pull request includes some small cleanups.

f5a31b7e57 Correctly output lowerbound/upperbound in threaded searches
fixes the lowerbound/upperbound output by taking the alpha,beta bracket
into account also if a bestThread is selected that is different from the master thread.

Instead of keeping track which bounds where used in the specific search,
in this version we simply store the quality (exact, upperbound,
lowerbound) of the score along with the actual score as information on
rootMove.

The line is no longer needed after 910cf8b218.
This patch incidentally applies "Futility Pruning for Captures" also in case of en-passant, changing the bench signature.

154e7afed0 Simplify trend and optimism.
This patch simplifies the formulas used to compute the trend and optimism values before each search iteration.
As a side effect, this removes the parameters which make the relationship between the displayed evaluation value
and the expected game result asymmetric.

I've also provided links to the results of isotonic regression analysis of the relationship between the evaluation and game result (statistical data and a graph) for both tests, which demonstrate that the new version has a more symmetric relationship:

2e02dd7936 Limit the researching at same depth.
If the elapsed time is close to the available time, the time management thread can signal that the next iterations should be searched at the same depth (Threads.increaseDepth = false). While the rootDepth increases, the adjustedDepth is kept constant with the searchAgainCounter.

In exceptional cases, when threading is used and the master thread, which controls the time management, signals to not increaseDepth, but by itself takes a long time to finish the iteration, the helper threads can search repeatedly at the same depth. This search finishes more and more quickly, leading to helper threads that report a rootDepth of MAX_DEPTH (245). The latter is not optimal as it is confusing for the user, stops search on these threads, and leads to an incorrect bias in the thread voting scheme. Probably with only a small impact on strength.

This behavior was observed almost two years ago,
see https://github.com/official-stockfish/Stockfish/issues/2717

This patch fixes #2717 by ensuring the effective depth increases at once every four iterations,
even in increaseDepth is false.

Depth 245 searches (for non-trivial positions) were indeed absent with this patch,
but frequent with master in the tests below:
