Tweak queen values for midgame and endgame
Queen midgame value: -1%
Queen endgame value: +1%
This patch failed STC, but was exceptionally tested at LTC,
where it passed two independant SPRT tests with bounds [0..4]:
LTC:
LLR: 2.95 (-2.94,2.94) [0.00,4.00]
Total: 20651 W: 3191 L: 2980 D: 14480

How to continue from there?
• there is probably some more Elo gains to get from the tuning
of the queen value.
