Improve mate finding with a dynamic futility pruning depth cutoff This PR improves mate finding with a dynamic futility pruning depth cutoff. The pruning depth is reduced with the following formula: `depth = 13 + int(0.5 + 6 / (1 + pow(abs(eval) + abs(beta), 3) / 50'000'000'000))` Threshold values where the depth changes were put into a lookup table to increase performance.
