/// HistoryMax controls how often the history counters will be scaled down:

/// entries in the table are divided by 2. It is difficult to guess what
/// the ideal value of this constant is. Scaling down the scores often has
/// the effect that parts of the search tree which have been searched
/// recently have a bigger importance for move ordering than the moves which
/// have been searched a long time ago.
