Scale Null Move Pruning reduction dynamically based on evaluation margin This patch introduces a dynamic scaling factor for Null Move Pruning (NMP) reductions. By scaling the reduction depth relative to the static evaluation margin against beta, the engine can afford more aggressive reductions in positions that are overwhelmingly favorable, optimizing CPU cycle utilization without compromising search integrity.
