Merge Gary's king safety tweak
Still well within error bars, so probably not a big improvement,
but may be worthwhile. I will let the test keep running. The idea
for the tweak came from the TCEC game against Houdini. Stockfish saw
it as a draw, well past when it should have seen problems. King safety
was off, since it was QN and pawns only, but in fact the king was
quite vulnerable.
After 8000 games at 60/1 (Gary's test)
ELO: -0.43 +- 99%: 10.02 95%: 7.62
Wins: 1235 Losses: 1245 Draws: 5520 Total: 8000
PGN of game against houdini. Moves 55-59 it was seeing a draw, and
Houdini was seeing a good sized advantage for black. With the change,
Stockfish now recognizes that moving the king there is a bad idea.
